YARN STASH WORKBOOK
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
I was disappointed because I thought there would be more small projects in which to use left-over yarn that every knitter accumulates. There were a few wonderful projects that combined various weights, colors and type in what I call wearable art: scarves, slippers, purses, placemats, etc., etc.... In total, it really is an excellent and informative book. Just wasn't expecting so many big sweaters and shawls. Being able to view the table of contents would have been very helpful. It's still a valuable book for a knitter to own and I'm glad I bought it.
Good Book

I've made the poncho on the front cover and a toboggan hat, using up lots of yarn from my stash, It's a bit time consuming changing yarns and then hiding all the ends when you get done, but the outcome is just beautiful.
yarn stash review
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
This beautiful book is helpful to those of us who love yarns and have many leftovers. I have already finished the mitered pillow and I am very pleased with it. Well written with great patterns, pictures, and tips, I am glad I bought this book.
Ideas with simple stitches for using up your stash
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
I liked this book because the instructions are simple, and the ideas practical for using up leftover or odds and ends yarns you might have. I like instructions that are one or two lines, and suggestions for organizing the stash by color and weight so you can see what might work together. And she talks about new novelty yarns that are hard to use due to their unpredictable gauge when knit up. If you are an expert knitter there is nothing here that you don't know, but if you are a beginner with lots of impulse yarn buys, this book may get you to use them up.
Great ideas for mixing yarns
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
The book has some great ideas, both specific and general, for mixing small-ish quantities of different yarns. Some patterns call for several skeins of a given yarn, which might not fit everyone's "stash" profile; but I found many projects so appealing that I'd augment what I already have with new yarn I'd buy, just to create the piece. Definitely has a unique place in my knitting book library!
