Well it wasn't pretty, that's for sure. I climbed my way into the corner of the yarn room to take the photo above, while Brett looked on in dismay. But we took it one thing at a time—and made much use of the hallway outside—to battle the piles.
We found lots of old, buried projects, which we will be sending back to Coats & Clark, who keep those archives. We kept a few things to have around, though, like the crab [1] (it's too funny!), and the lacy river rocks [2] (paperweights!), and the graphic granny 'ghan [3] (you know how cold offices can get).
And we found a LOT of yarn. So much yarn that we don't need, in fact, that we filled two ENORMOUS garbage bags of it. I'm not talking the normal black garbage bags you might use in your trash cans in the garage. I'm talking about industrial-size bags that I swear are taller than me before you fill them up. But never fear! We are not throwing all this yarn away. We are hoping to sort through it a bit and you just may be the lucky winners of batches of this yarn. But that will be another day . . .
Because we're still not done. But it's surely better than it was!
