Indecisive Yarns

You know them. We all have them. Those beautiful yarns in your stash that you treasure, hold dear and show off… but you don’t know what to do with them.

Sometimes the color scheme or pooling just isn’t working with the pattern you choose. Sometimes you don’t even get that far – the yarn has been sitting in your collection for months or even years (no judging!). You pull it out, you pet it and admire it… and then it goes right back where it came from, because you literally have no idea where to take it.

In this episode of Pardon My Stash, the cast discusses what to do with these special but frustrating skeins. We discuss what to do when the yarn composition just isn’t jiving with the project you had in mind for it, as well as the possibility that the yarn is destined for another craft (weaving, perhaps?). And we talk about occasions when we’ve been in such tight spots, and what we have done.

Example: Tina uses a variegated yarn that she had trouble with, alongside a solid color in a brioche scarf.

Celebrations:

Tina finished her Southwood Sweater! And her Modern Cabled Tea Cozy!
