    35 kg of yarn means lots of opportunities 🎉🎉🎉 I love these kinds of videos because yarn collections are beautiful 😍 and keeping track of the yarn helps you make good plans

    Hei Oline🌞 I just finished my cleaning, I'm a little shocked.😱 I checked three times, but it's not a mistake. My result is 147 yarns, 610 skeins and 31.5 kg. I bought a large shelf and quite a lot could fit there. Now I walk around and look at them and touch them all the time.😁 And it's all thanks to you.🙏🥰 Thank you Oline 😊

    I loved this in-depth tour of your stash. Fascinating, and I'm rather impressed with all your plans. Plus I'm looking at your porcelaine sweater and envious as I haven't got round to knitting one yet. Lol.

    I've also been organizing my stash and trying to pick out projects for my yarn. I'm finding myself with a lot of 1 or 2 random hanks of yarn these days from gifts, so trying to knock out some small projects right now. But then I went and ordered some yarn for a baby blanket I want to knit, so I'm not making it any better 😂 I love how organized the yarn for baby knits are, I think it's a great idea, and I'm going to probably do the same with a lot of my yarn. Thanks for the good ideas!

    I'm so bad at using my leftover skeins, especially if it's only 1 or 2😅 I need to do a month of only doing scrap yarn projects sometime soon🙈 Which baby blanket are you going to knit? I'm so pleased with the baby knits idea! Can't wait to add more plans (and knit them😅)

    @norwegianknitter yeah I'm trying my best to use up what I have. I just get so distracted with bigger projects haha. I'm going to knit a blanket on ravelry I saw called the Catnip blanket! Knitting in baby size, but most likely my precious cat will get some good use out of it lol. I just thought the design was so cute and I had some drops nord in my stash, just had to order 3 extra skeins!

    Hi Oline, I really enjoyed this video and feel so inspired seeing all your yarns and hearing all of your well thought-out plans. I love the way you have organized some of your yarns in bags and have them labeled with the projects you plan for them. I also find that pulling out my stash and going through it every once in a while really sparks my creativity and reminds me of all the joy and possibilities that knitting brings. Plus your cat is adorable! My two kitties watched your podcast with me.😺😺

    Hi! Thank you! I'm so glad I got that idea for the baby knits. Now I won't forget my idea for the yarn before I have time to cast on😅🥰 Going through my stash is my favorite way to spark inspiration! If only it wasn't so time-consuming, haha😅 How adorable that you watch with your cats🥰 say hi from me!

    Wonderful video 😊 Great idea to group together knits for different categories! Now I want to knit baby knits too😊 I love your summer knit plans also, you select beautiful patterns. I knit several sophie scarves for Christmas gifts last year. Plus socks and hats. I started Christmas knitting in August and my stop date was a hard December 10th. I got everything shipped out and felt free to knit whatever I desired. This year I have already started my Christmas knitting. But I am still going to stop December 10th. You are a talented knitter and so very thoughtful. Have a lovely day

    Thank you!! I used quite a lot of time trying to figure out how to store my stash, and I'm really happy with the results!! Can't wait to get started on all of my plans🤩 Starting Christmas knitting early is so smart of you!! I want to start early this year too! And having a cut-off date is so smart! I think I'm going to steal your way of doing it, haha. Thank you so much! Have a lovely day!

    So fun to see your stash. I need to go through my yarn and reorganize. You are a fast knitter. Do you know the quantity you knit in a year? I know some that record on Ravelry can know how much yarn the knit in a year. ❤️❤️❤️

    I LOVE stash and planning videos! I have a few knitting friends but none of them are as crazy as me and wouldn't be interested in a two to three hour show and tell. I wish I could invite you over to show you all my yarn 🤣 I knit my son a Monday sweater in Drops Cotton Merino and it wears and washes great. I definitely prefer wool over plant based yarns but I enjoyed knitting with that yarn and it's a great sweater for spring and fall. For a striped sweater for your son have a look at the sibling sweater by Laura Penrose. Also comes in an adult size.

    I love stash and planning videos too!! None of my friends who live nearby knit, so I force my fiancé to sit through a lot of yarn/knitting talk😂 my favorite thing with youtube is being able to share my passion for knitting with like-minded people!! Thanks for letting me know your experience with cotton merino! I look even more forward to working with it now! I have seen the sibling sweater! And I LOVE the look of it, but it's knit in DK weight, so I I'm pretty sure I don't have enough yarn to make it🥲
