I had to upgrade my storage cabinet. My hoard has got much bigger now. As my family brought me lots of different colour stylecraft special DK yarn for Christmas. I love it :)
oooh I wish my stash could be so organised too. MY HUBBY SAID MINE IS ALL OVER THE PLACE. I KNOW BUT DONT HAVE ONE CUPBOARD SPECIALLY FOR MY STASH. HE ALSO TOLD ME I HAVE TOO MUCH AS IT IS SCATTERED AROUND. A BIT HERE A BIT THERE. I WAS HAPPY TO SHOW HIM YOUR STASH. YOU SEE I TOLD HIM I WAS NOT ONLY ONE WITH WOOL EVEN THOUGH I AM A LITTLE MORE THAN A BEGINNER BEGINNER
That's about half of my stash in the sitting room, equal to that in the dining room, plus the 9 or so bags in my bedroom, heaven knows how much in the junk room and loft, all stored indoors because my 8' x 6' shed is bulging at the seams. I have bipolar disorder which results in me being rather tunnel visioned in my spending. Meds are now working I think so I must not buy wool ... I must not buy wool ... I must not ... oooh WOOL!!! Lol.
I made three of these cabinets to display my mother's hand painted china after she died, but I'm afraid my stash takes up more than half of her former bedroom, and that's in addition to my 'what I'm going to knit next' cupboard. People in our village know I knit charity blankets and keep giving me auntie's or Grannie's stash and it's all got a bit out of hand. I'd love to be able to store mine like yours. Yarn is as good as a work of art, pleasing to look at with the thrill of anticipation. I even have a stash waiting for me in Australia ready to knit for the grandchildren next visit!
Wow, that's very organised! I think my stash is larger, but as I have it all stowed in vacuum bags it is hard to tell. This cupboard must be great inspiration for your future projects.
That looks great I'm jealous of your storage space and what you have in it. Only trouble is I love sewing to so I'd need another for the fabric stash too!
