A Great Shawl for a Single Skein of DK Weight Yarn

I love single skein projects. Mostly because a lot of my stash is single skeins and I’m trying to pare it down, so anything I can make with a single ball makes me happy.

If you’ve got some Miss Babs Yowza, or anotherDK weight yarn in a length of around 500 yards, you can make this great shawl in a jiffy.

Tsukimi by Angela Tong is a triangular shawl worked in Garter Stitch with a fun lace edging. It works up fast on size 10 US knitting needles, so this would be a great project for a long weekend or to get ready for fall with a fun new accessory.

The pattern is $7 on Ravelry.

One of my missions as a crafter is to encourage people to use what they have to make something great. Accumulating stash is fun, but at some point you realize that you have more than you can ever use, and that can be really overwhelming.

A couple of years ago I wrote a book called How to Declutter Your Craft Supplies, which is all about why it’s so hard to let go of stash and how to deal with it. This is something I still struggle with and I’m in the midst of cleaning out my office/studio yet again (seriously, how can I still have so much stuff when I’m not buying anything new?).

If you’re gearing up for spring cleaning (or fall cleaning!) you need to check out the Get Organized Toolkit, of which my book is a part. This collection of more than 60 ebooks, courses, guides and printables will help you organize your home, business, mind and life.

There are so many great products here, from decluttering guides to advice on how to organize your book collection, cleaning up your iPhone and dealing with mental clutter. You’ll learn all about minimalism, get a planner to help you stay on top of home maintenance and learn how to build a capsule wardrobe, among other things. It’s a great way to get a lot of helpful advice all at once to help you lead a more organized and peaceful life.

The bundle is on sale through March 29. You can read more about it on my blog or go here to buy. And if you have specific questions about decluttering craft supplies or using your stash I would love to hear them!
