That still constitutes a stash :rofling: so no saying you don't have a stash Missy!

I do not really have a "stash" as i am pretty new. But my mom is a fiber artist, mostly weaver, and well her stash takes up 2 bedrooms at their new house. So if i needed to i could always raid hers. That is a nice option to have.

Sounds like denial to me!!

That's OK, plenty of enablers here!!! I myself have stash-envy. Only one ball of Rowan Kid Classic for a little Christmas teddy bear and the rest are leftover bits. :(

I'm going to Maine in a couple of weeks and have been saving myself for the great yarn (prounounced YAAN) stores that I visited last year.

Can't wait!!!

Hi Anne from Sebago!

This will be our 6th year visiting the mid-coast region and I CANNOT begin to tell you how much we enjoy and look forward to it. The two shops I visited for the first time last year are both in Camden. Unique One has a nice selection (in the back) and they sell clothing in the front. The other is Stitchery Square and has other needlework items aside from yarn.

I was looking at the Camden Tourist website and saw an item about a spinnery in Hope called Hope Spinnery - about 8 miles away from Camden it looks like.

My kids are spending a few weeks at summer camp and visiting them is what brings us up there. I am certain we'll continue to visit long after their camp days are behind them!! If you come across any other great places along coastal rt. 1, let me know!!

We haven't explored much of the southern coast, though we had a very nice lunch last year in York on our way back to reality. Hope you have a great summer and don't let any obnoxious tourists (myself, of course excluded from that designation) bug you too much!!

Lynn

So, hildegard....what size is an enormous stash?!
I'm curious because I consider my stash to be on the small side of medium, but others differ and think it's large...
Opinions....?! Beuller....? Beuller....
