In honor of Flash Your Stash Day (which it still barely is in this time zone), I thought I would share a major selling point of my apartment: built-in yarn storage
So you see, my stash is totally under control. Of course when I turned around, I saw this
And then I went to my desk
And my chair swivels
And there's a bunch of yarn in MS. And maybe a few skeins in MN...
In The Wild Swans by HC Anderson, a girl must knit sweaters for her 12 brothers-turned-swans to make them human again, in the short time before she is to be burned as a witch, and she must do it with her bare hands using stinging nettles.
In addition to being a very exciting example of knitting in fairy tales, it sums up the essence of knitting; though painfully frustrating at times, it is always worthwhile.
