Storage Sunday - Yarn

Happy Sunday!!

Today's area of concentration is Yarn!! Well I wish my yarn was stored in open bookshelves all neatly bundled in balls but that's not the case. I store all my scrummy yarn in the Ikea 'Hol' storage cube and also use it as a coffee table which makes it easy access all the time. It's also only £16 which is brilliant!

It's really convenient for everyday use and helps save space.

In the top layer I keep my current projects, tools and yarn that I plan on using for upcoming projects. I try to group them by fibre and thickness, and sometimes by colour.

The bottom layer has lots of colourful yarn, some acrylics, bamboo cotton, wool and other mixtures.

My hooks, needles, thread & scissors are all stored in a Cath Kidston tin. My favourite hook to use at the moment is a 4mm Clover hook, which I basically use for almost everything. My other favourite is a vintage double ended bamboo hook which is the smoothest in the world! I do like my other bamboo hooks too, particularly the chunky ones but the smaller ones are a little flimsy and rough. 

How do you store your yarn?
