Find Your Fade

I'm obsessed with knitting the Find Your Fade shawl. I can't wait to wear it. It's going to be like a wearable blanket.

I have swapped out my color choices about 5 times, and resorted to hand dyeing some yarn when I couldn't find anything that was exactly what I was looking for. But after all that, I think I may have finally "found" my fade.

I am continuing to "stash" my yarn in Ravelry, which has been a really interesting exercise. And I am now up to 147 yarns/gradient sets. I also started a thread to keep track of yarn combos that I might want to use in a project.

It's possible I have a yarn problem

I decided to join a "Find Your Fade" KAL, so I went stash diving to see if I had 7 skeins of yarn that would work together. Turns out, I did.

The skein in the bottom of that picture was purchased in 2006. That is not a typo.

And suddenly I realized that I have no real idea what's in my stash. So as a slightly-after-New-Year's-resolution, I decided to try and catalog my yarn. 

So far, I have added 45 yarns and yarn sets to my Ravelry stash. And I'm just getting started.
