Organization rocks!

It's taken me two days but I finally have all my little bits of yarn organized. I have done tons of trades and received tons of yarn as presents - but in 1-2 yard pieces. Some as big as 5 yards but that's it. I had them in a plastic grocery bag and each time I looked for something they got more and more tangled up. I'm thrilled with them now though! Check it out ...

Before - wound on tags, in little baggies, on cardboard - huge mess!

After - nicely wound on little embroidery floss bobbins. There are about 185 of those suckers. But worth the effort for sure!

You and Kai have the "neat and orderly bug". Now that's the kind of "bug" I need to catch, instead of this virus that has me coughing and sniffing!

I have a ton of those bobbins and this is a great idea, but oh my that is a lot of wrapping! Looks great!

Wooooohoooooo! You take the prize, girl! My poor old numb hands would NEVER have let me do that! It looks GREAT, tho' & will be so much easier to USE now! You MUST be tired! I think what I told Zach on his blog this morning REALLY applies! LOL!
