I still have a bin full of hats from the last time I went on a hat-knitting jag. LOL I know that I’m a piker compared to a lot of other knitters, but I really need to make room for all my handspun. 🙂
Good luck with your sock knitting. You have pretty yarns to choose from. I had the same goal last year. I was only able to finish 10 pair but had lots of fun and learned a lot.
I should be able to complete 12 pairs, but sometimes life happens. And I don’t have a toddler to chase after or a job or anything like that. I’m a lady of leisure, aka retired. 😀
Well, I also have a rather large stash of laceweight yarn, and a lot of miscellaneous yarn, too. But it does all fit in one closet (although not all of it IS in one closet LOL). 🙂
Great idea! I think I’ll do that, too .. 😉 Maybe not only socks – but I definitely plan on reducing my stash a bit, because the Big Box is getting fuller and fuller … And I want to be able to buy new yarn without that guilty feeling I’m getting at the moment. 😉
I wish I was that cool … 😉 But to be honest, I want to save a bit money this year. I’m doing fine, but I want to get a bit on the safe side … And because of this, I don’t want to buy so much of it.
It’ll be fun to follow your progress … I’m always curious to see what socks other knitters have on their needles.
Q – I’m envious! I want to get down to that small amount. Great goal! Hat trick?

Hrm, that might take up 1/12 of your stash. A good start 🙂
Yeah, it will be just a drop in the bucket, but one must start somewhere. 😀

I thought my yarn stash was bad… until I saw yours! good luck with the socks. I don’t know what to do with mine yet!

Never, ever feel guilty about buying more yarn. Never. Ever. 😀

I am a bit obsessed with hand-knitted socks and I “squee” when I open someone’s blog and see a sock picture. I ♡ socks. 🙂
