........... for 1½ hr.
I was visiting Felisis blog earlier this morning and she made it clear to all of us that she only will have one UFO - the one she is knitting on.
I on the other hand have had 7 or 8 UFO´s in the early years-
Now I decided to let my self have 3 or 4 objects in progress.
That works for me because then I have different things to work on ,during different times.
I also decided that to day was the day to take a closer look at my yarn boxes-
6 very big bedrollers and 4 smaller boxes and 3 bags filled.
Alot of dust so I had to clean the top and while emtying it I might as well clean it inside as well.
I had yarn everywhere. I keep them in a lace weight box, chunky and so on-- it was very mixed.
I also decided to throw away useless small balls ( I know.. it was hard)- and single chunky stuff only 25 gr or so..
I will never use it to anything. OUT !
I will toss it. Bye, bye
This was ment to be a top / T-shirt kind of thing.
Pretty unusual, because it was made in a spiral- so all I had to do was knit 4rows of knit and 4 rows of purling.
Amazingly boring if you ask me and doomed to be a UFO( - 05)
The yarn is Isager wool. on needle 3mm.
The yarn is coloured by myself in the colour flip I had in -05
I decided to close it and let it be a scarf.
It meacures 140 cm- streched 170cm.
Enough for a scarf.

Yes! Throw away and out.
and:
1kg and 200 gr of Kathmandu.
That I don´t know what to do with.
The thing is this is probably the worst yarn EVER that I bought( on sale) .
It is absolutly horrifying to knit with. The work turns out flat and lifeless/boring.
It is not good to knit with eather.. It get stuck in the stiches if you know what I mean.
Absolutly useless.
400 of deep green
200 of tile green.
It should be forbidden to make yarn like this. To look so Jummy and delicious.
I think it is the silk in it that makes it that awful.
Have not decided what to do with it yet. Give it away maybe.
I have 100 gr left - wouldn´t it be horrifying if I made a pair of socks and I ended up not finishing them because I ran out of yarn?
That´s why.

du kan selge garnet du vil ikke har, for eks. pa Ebay eller gi det til barnehage etc. ...jeg har en venn som ofte bytte garn med andre; er det en ide for deg?!!!
Ha en super helg videre ☀

Jo tak. jeg vet godt hvor det skal .
Tar det nok med op i skolen, men kender du det? vil vel prøve en siste gr. å strikke med det, da det er så fint... jeg vet jeg blir skuffa- igjen. sånn bare for å overbevise mig selv.
Engang imellem kan det vaere befriende at slippe af med alt der der kun ligger i poser og kurve. Mit plejer jeg at aflevere til kirkens noerklegruppe eller fritidshjemmet.
Jeg har besluttet at give det væk til en genbrugsbutik for Røde kors.
På den måde kommer det nogen til gode;-)
You brave woman! I'd be afraid to pour out everything onto my bed. I'd have a hard time letting go of UFOs, and a hard time letting go of bits or sets of yarn.
Brave indeed, I don't have as many UFO's as you do but I applaud your efforta to get organise.
