Say Goodbye to Your Yarn Stash Woes ― Forever

Every knitter knows the innate joy of purchasing yarn, and many also know the stress and shame that comes with an out-of-control stash. No longer! Let bestselling author, designer and educator Marie Greene change your outlook on buying, organizing and using your yarn for good. With this tried-and-true guide, you’ll rediscover the joy in your stash―no yarn diets necessary!―as you learn to find inspiration in the yarn you already have, shop for skeins you’ll actually use and organize it all for maximum creativity.

 

Best of all, Marie has designed 10 brand-new patterns to help you use your existing yarn in exciting ways, so you can work through your stash with ease and continue to curate your yarn collection with purpose. Use the color wheel to whip up creative combos in the Color Theory Socks or Shawl. Make leftovers look intentional with the Block Party Beanie or Pullover, or double your strands for double the fun in the Marled Stripe Mittens or Mini Mohair Cowl. Soon you’ll not only have a satisfying stash system that is clear, tidy and inspirational, but an assortment of gorgeous knitted projects to remind you how truly joyful yarn can be.

Everyone is saying...

“As a yarn shop owner, the last thing we want is for my customers to feel stifled by their own stash. Marie’s creative ideas to help crafters organize and use their stash yarn helps them become savvier customers in the store. This book is a must-read for any yarn-lover, whether you have a couple of skeins in your stash or an entire collection!”

“This book will take any knitter from being embarrassed by their stash to feeling empowered by it! Having too much yarn we don’t use is the knitter’s equivalent of standing in front of a packed closet and declaring “I have nothing to wear.” Marie’s ingenious method helps the knitter understand what we have, what we like, and best of all, how to really use our stash efficiently. If you are thinking she’s going to tell you not to buy more yarn, think again. From stash busting patterns to stash enhancing suggestions, this is a book every knitter will love.”
