Here is my blanket, almost ready to go! The short edges (not in photo) are a "party mix" of stash, but the main part is this fun superwash chunky I got in 2008 at Stitches. More importantly, I have completely knitted through my stash, which has been my goal since Stitches. Whoo hoo! Time to replenish . . . Where do I even begin?

Wow! Like the colors. What a fun yarn to work with.
You are so good to actually knit through your stash. I seem to be on the I'm-knitting-something-so-I-have-to-replenish-now-on-sale program of stash usage and management. You must be the epitome of self-control.
Have fun replenishing! There are still good buys online if your LYS is short on them.

Wow. Beautiful colors. I'm amazed and dazzled.
Thanks for showing us.
This is gorgeous, and congratulations on creating a stash vaccum - like Becky I'd be quick to try to fill it!
Thanks for showing us the blanket! Fun colors! I received a HUGE bag of yarn from a LYS...the owner said someone gave it to her, and she doesn't knit with wool, so she gave it to me. I swear, this bag is like loaves & fishes! I've knit 2 blankets from it and it's still full! LOL. And the color combinations aren't exactly thrilling. But, never look a gift stash in the mouth, right?
The colors in this are so nice...reminds me of Indian Paintbrush flowers.
I'm in awe that you've knitted your stash, Tory. I tell myself that's what I'm going to do, but have yet to do that. And when a campaign starts, I do look through my stash, but if I have multiple skeins of 1 color, I want to keep them for a campaign that needs that many skeins (understand?) So...I'm usually buying new. I tell myself (& hubby) it's my way of helping the economy!
