Thousands of yards of Merino/Cotton...  

post #1 of 9
Thread Starter 
What to make?? I don't think I have the patience to knit a blanket...

This is MainLine form Knit Picks. I have a chocolate brown, an almond brown, and some red velvet cake red. Very beautiful colors, look great together, but...I need inspiration!

I just knit up the wrap cardigan from KP&S, but it only used up a fraction of this stash.

I've stared at pages of projects on Ravelry with no "aha!" moment.

Maybe anther CPH? I do love my PF version...

Ideas? Inspiration? Should I head to Ebay??

(BTW, my stash is INSANE, and I absolutely am bound and determined to get rid of most of it somehow. I hate, hate, hate selling stuff, but I may do it)

I think out of the three colors I have about 4,500 yards...*what* was I thinking??

Are you on ravelry? I have a que that is amazingly long- I never have ANY problem deciding what to start next!!!

I love the feature that lets you browse what other people have made with a particular yarn!

What about Roam? I am working on it right now and really enjoying it. I bet it would look great as a solid color.

BTW- what did you think about this yarn for the wrap cardi? I've got that one to do next and not sure what yarn to use. I was thinking something from Knitpicks but wasn't sure what would be best TIA

I am. I did. Wasn't inspired then...

Just went back with fresh eyes, and I think I may have to knit up a cocoa "Wicked".
Thanks for convincing me to give that another go.

I like it so far. I'll post picks this weekend (new camera is calling me)...
I like the drape and the thickness. It's very soft.
