I finally spent a day organising my yarn collection which was in desperate need of doing because I have a habit of spotting pretty yarn and giving in to the urge to buy it all… whoops… I really need to learn to restrain myself, especially as most of the time I don’t even have a pattern in mind, which means I may or may not end up buying enough yarn for potential future projects.
So in an attempt to be more aware of what yarn I am actually currently in possession of, I spent some time sorting my office and having a re-jig of pf my shelves to create a proper yarn corner. Without much further ado, here are the before and after photos of my office rearrange.




The past few months had seen my desk become a bit of a dumping ground. So it feels great to finally have an organised space again. My yarn had also been stuffed into big boxes which although great for storage, meant I couldn’t see half the yarn in them and I’d forget what yarn I had.


Now with everything on display I can finally keep track of my yarn stash. I’ve got them all sorted and grouped into various yarn types and stacked up on my bookcase. It’s so satisfying to see all the pretty colours and know what yarn I have available. I’m so happy to have a corner dedicated to my crocheting and knitting and it’s inspiring me to keep creating!


What a cozy corner! I used to buy yarn on whim, but I’ve stopped since I have nowhere to put it! π

Thanks π and indeed aha, it’s a dangerous habit buying yarn on a whim. I definitely have more than enough for quite a few projects and as I’m not the fastest crocheter this will last me quite a while aha – so I should really put myself on a yarn buying ban :p xo

At least the good thing is you’ve got enough supply to keep you going for a while! A yarn buying ban is hilarious! π

Thanks – It definitely makes it easier to check out what I have in stock when I start a new project, before going to buy more π
