Stash Socks Lorna Laces

And they are done. Actually was a fairly fast project but so much fun to do. For the record you need 19 lengths of yarn 6 -8 yards long, depending on the width of the stripes you want to knit and a contrasting color for the toe, heel and cuff. I would say probably another 80-85 yds would do it.

These were sent to my Nephew who loves hand knitted socks and I know will appreciate them.

Completed Stash Socks

Check out my "Workroom".

Yesterday my husband decided to take some photos of my "stock room". We knitters all have various places to keep our yarns and stash but would you believe that this is most of the yarns that I have. I try not to buy new yarns until I am ready for another project or have a specific order I need yarn for. They sit in a hugh basket in front of me while I am knitting. When I work on a project, no matter what, I finish that project before I start another. I have tried to discipline myself so that I will complete a project and not have projects just "almost" completed. It really does make for a more efficient use of space and actually has made me more mindful of finishing not only projects but tasks that I do on an everyday basis. This is a very good thing.http://www.etsy.com/shop/byhandbyjean
