The Great STASH KNIT DOWN of 2011 1ST QUARTER

I've stolen this wonderful idea from Lisseut
But I'm finding that other brilliant minds are thinking the same thing.
Let me explain the Stash Knit Down of 2011:
Goal-for my stash to get down to 20 items.
I can only buy "X"yards of yarn or roving after I've used/gifted 3"X"yards.
I'm going to update this post as I use/gift/acquire



U=used/gifted/tossed
A=Acquired



U=1skein=400 yards fingering by Knitted to a T



U=1lb corriedale roving spun 3ply worsted got 650 yd from Copperpot made Shalom with it

U=2 skein 270 yd  each for total of 540 yd DK weight 'On Your Toes' from S.R.Kertzer


U=4oz Alpacca 2ply 250 yds from Lunabud Knits made Rorschach's Net




U= 40z Merino roving (280 yds) from Knitted to a T, made Garden Pond with it.



U= 6 skeins (1380 yds) DK weight from Great Northern Yarns, made Edelweiss Neckwarmer with it.
3/31/11 Spun 1lb 8oz/Knit 3250 yds, YEAH!!!!
