The Virtuous Knitter

I did two virtuous things as a knitter this weekend: I picked up my swift and ball winder from Arcadia, using it to wind my Socks That Rock sock yarn for my next pair of socks, and ... I aired my stash and started a spreadsheet to catalog it.

The interesting thing is that I don't have as much yarn as I thought I did, and I do have pretty clear ideas about what to do with my stash. I put a column in the spreadsheet to capture the ideas, and they are pretty extensive.

The other interesting thing is that I have three or four sweaters that I want to frog that are in the stash. One didn't turn out as well as I would have liked, and that's a waste of Debbie Bliss cotton denim aran, and the others are older sweaters that aren't as well-made or well-finished as I am capable of now. So they are gonna get remade, with some modifications. But I'm having so much fun knitting right now that I don't want to spend any time frogging!

That spreadsheet makes me feel so virtuous, it's incredible.
