This will be yet another yarns for baby things post. I can't help it! Knitting baby things is so satisfying, and did you see how darn cute my nephew is???
These two balls of Cascade 220 Superwash were actually the first yarns I bought to knit cute things for Baby J, way back in April when I found out my sister was pregnant. My plan for this yarn was, and still is, to knit a baby bear sweater from the Baby Sweater Buffet. Even though Baby J is so teeny tiny right now, I think I'll knit a 1 year size for him over the summer so he can wear it all next fall!
"Another two balls of superwash yarn?!" you say? Well, yes. Because babies. These two balls of Valley Superwash have a much more immediate purpose, a Baby Vertebrae for the holidays for Baby J! Hopefully this stash yarn, in there since early July, will be out in the next couple weeks.
My poor little camera just couldn't handle this light yarn + my dark desk. I tried to take pictures on two different occasions, but this is as good as it got!
Last of this set of stash yarns is some thrift store yarn with no plan other than "for future babies." Would you believe me if I told you I know a number of people who are expecting babies, but none of them are girls?! I couldn't pass up this one-dollar-each batch of Valley Yarns Longmeadow at the thrift store back in June though. Into the stash it went, and in the stash it stays for now!
I have one more post to finish off the "What's in my Stash?!" series. That's a lot of yarn! I haven't used any of it yet since I'm knitting gifts right now, but after the holidays it will be stash knitting only for me! If any of my wonderful readers (all three of you!) would like some of their favorite stash yarns featured here, just comment and your wish will be my command!
