Major revamping of my craft space going on right now; am purging clutter and stuff I don't use. Including yarn. It has been an exercise in trying not to be attached to stuff. For me, yarn is especially hard to get rid of. Part of what I love about buying yarn is all the hope and potential it possesses. Sometimes the dream of the potential of the yarn is better than the finished object. So parting with yarn is a little like parting with some of my dreams. Don't get sad though - I'm making room for more! In the sense that with less clutter and quantity, my existing dreams have room the breathe and actually take shape and happen. That's the idea, at any rate.
I would do well to heed the advice of this blog. I love this cartoon from it.

Really? I don't remember seeing a crazy amount of yarn in your home. Were you hiding some from me? I've noticed that I'm accumulating yarn in this category, "Orphan Yarn = leftover from a completed project, but cannot part with it".
