11 Ideas on How to Organize your Yarn Stash

Fall is here. You are thinking that now is the right time to start making all those cute things you have in your "Crochet Ideas" board.
 
So, here are 11 organizing tips and ideas, that will make your knitting time relaxed and happier.




A good way to start is by making your "yarn inventory". 
 
This way you will not buy something you already have and you can match up yarns you've used previously and want to use again.




How to keep your balls of yarn in order


Use a clean sugar dispenser by threading the end of the yarn through the hole in the lid.




Make a hole in the lid of a jar and place your yarn inside the jar 






Repurpose empty tissue boxes. They can also stack and take less space.




 
Use empty cd/dvd sprindles. They can also stack.





How about a clear plastic closet organizer? 
 
You can also hang it in your craft room wall.




 
Or the Ikea bag dispensers?




 

The yarn leftovers

Wrap the yarn leftovers around clothespins. 
 
Don't forget to clasp the end of the yarn.



Needle storage

You will also need a storage for your needles. 
 
How about a jar, that can be decorated with your crochet creations?




While you knit

 
For the "knitting work in progress", make a beautiful sofa-pocket




 
Keep your cat busy while you knitting and have some yarn balls only for her.
