I have not taken an inventory. I don't really want to know. Maybe my New Years Resolution should be to have less in my stash then when I started. Maybe it should be to buy no new yarn and knit, knit, knit what I have until the Maryland Sheep Festival in May.
Although I plan to use my sock stash...I also intend to concentrate on the rest of my stash. Usually when I get sweater yarn, I have a pattern in mind. However, I am sure that I am not the only person who can't remember what she intended to do with some yarn...not a clue...nada...when she finally was ready to knit....This year I began putting a copy of the pattern with newly acquired yarn.
Another plan is to convince my daughters to adopt and knit some of my stash....a win win situation.
I have been going through books, my patterns stash, and the internet pulling out sock patterns I like. My next plan is to pair yarns with patterns. I like the idea of making my own kits.
Right now I am trying to finish 5 projects before beginning another.....and hopefully begin and finish my January socks by the end of the month......
Ready to begin.

Wow...you sound like me. I have lots of other stash too and have been working on using it up. Can't wait to see some of the things you knit up including your socks!
That's funny I can't always remember it later either. Or, I swatch it and decide it would suck as the intended project and go hareing off looking for the "right" thing.
