Is your stash is a state of chaos? Today we are going to put on our organizing hats (we can make them out of leftover swatches) and get to work. In this installment of our 2025 Untangle the Stash series, I’ll walk you through yarn organization tips, with a deep dive into sorting by weight, fiber content, color and more - all of which to make your knitting and crochet life easier and inspiring! Bonus: Oscar whines about his cashmere dog bed. (Okay, maybe that’s not a bonus)
