This year, I had a very determined goal to reduce my stash. I've had some of my yarn for a few years, and I was getting frustrated by always getting sidetracked.

I seem to remember last time you flung yourself off the wagon. It was at Knitch and also involved socks.
I've been trying to burn through my stash too. Mainly to make some room for all the great yarn that keeps coming into Knitch.
