I went the wrong way on my stash reduction plan. I added three more skeins of fingering weight yarn. However as I finished an Ericka scarf and a pair of socks I’ve still decreased my stash by one skein. At least I haven’t increased the stash, just not decreased it as much as I hoped. Probably today or tomorrow I will finish a second Ericka scarf and will be down 2 skeins of fingering weight. Thanks to cottontail (http://knocturnalknitter.blogspot.com/) I’m debating starting a shawlette. I have other projects I should work on but it looks so nice and it is fingering weight.

Glad I’m not the only one that fell off the wagon. I haven’t bought yarn but somehow missed the concept that if I spin fiber I’m adding to my yarn stash. Oh well, I do love the spinning and it’s just the bomb knitting with the handspun. You need to use yours!
I think you’ll like the Sirppi Shawlette. It’s one of those addictive knitting patterns.
