Stash Storage...Finally!!!

So, I've finally reorganized my stash, after several long months of thought. Many teens on Ravelry have said that they use plastic drawers. I had a set of those, with nothing but junk in it, such as paper scraps, which I've relocated into a cardboard box. The craft paper went into the nightstand with nothing in it, thus leaving space for everything yarn.

The first one is printouts of patterns that I'm saving, because I might need them again. Should I ever get any, my knitting books will belong there too.


In the second drawer, there are knitting needles and notions. I also have my interchangeable set in there, because it is extremely disorganized.


The third drawer is yarn, yarn, and nothing but YARN. This is the yarn I'd be most likely to pick up when starting something new. It does include Red Heart, shame on me.
 

And lastly, the yarn I don't want or need, but am stuck with.


Oops! I forgot my overpopulated scrap pile. Just odds and ends, too little to use.



This is my current WIP, a basketweave blanket.


This one is rather boring, but I can live with that. The knitting hasn't been going so well. I started out with three extra stitches on the needles, but didn't know that until when I was done with the garter stitch. And yesterday, as I was organizing my stash, I found that one of the circular tips I grabbed were the wrong size. It's not bad though.

I'm also helping out with the magazine Ravelry's teen group is helping to create. I'm designing and writing articles mostly. I hope it is a great success.
