As new knitters, many of us tend to fall down the rabbit hole of buying supplies and end up with more than we could possibly knit through in a reasonable timeframe. I’m no exception. That’s why I’ve set myself a no-buy challenge. My goal is to fit my entire stash into one big plastic box, and I don’t intend to buy any new yarn until I get there. So today I invite you to come along and dive into my yarn stash. We’ll find out exactly how much I have and explore the details: color, fiber content, and texture (with close-ups). Bonus: A show-and-tell of my finished and planned knitting projects featuring these yarns. ★★★ ⏱️ Chapters 00:00 How this video works 00:43 BC Garn Bio Shetland & BC Garn Babyalpaca → Lace Loop Sweater by Other Loops 01:28 Drops Snow 01:58 Ístex Léttlopi → June Sweater by Amie James https://youtu.be/qNjE1iBgjEY 03:37 BC Garn Babyalpaca 07:16 Selfcare Break in the Garden 07:53 BC Garn Summer in Kashmir → Running Circles Sweater by Drops Design 08:19 Chinese Cashmere Blend 09:10 Drops Alaska → Holly Dolly Sweater by Drops Design & Bunny Bloom by Drops Design 09:46 Drops Snow → Raglan Sweater (no pattern) 10:56 Manos del Uruguay Ideal → Autumn Valley Sweater by Drops Design 12:19 Where I got quite a lot of my yarn from 12:55 Lana Grossa Silkhair 14:10 Lana Grossa Ecopuno 15:07 Miscellaneous Cotton Blends 15:56 LindeHobby Merino Bliss 175 → Kid’s Raglan Sweater (no pattern), Milho Scarflet by Thread of the Earth 16:21 Sock yarns → Vanilla Sock with Gusset & Choice of Heel by Jo Torr https://youtu.be/5biHW1BGjXI You’re putting me on by Judy Gibson 16:57 Cashmere yarn from an unraveled cardigan 17:14 Järbo Select No. 1 Mohair Tweed 17:41 Lang Yarns Greina 18:26 YarnArt Rosegarden, Søstrene Grene Cotton 8/4, Durable Double Four → Wheat Stitch Sweater by Briana K Designs 19:34 Lang Yarns Golf, Jaeger Madras 20:08 Knitting for Olive Cotton Merino 20:25 Another selfcare break 20:45 Manos del Uruguay Alpaca Heather 21:25 Jieka W
