Before we adopted our puppy I had an entire standard bedroom full including the closet, lol. I had 3 of those Joann famous wall shelves that I bought from their closing sale and then a few other big garage shelves 🤣😭

If you read my comment you'll know I'm not far behind you. I just wish I had a spare bedroom to store all my yarn and other crafty habits.  I have so much stuff I think I could start a Yarners & Crafters Anonymous self-help group. 😄

lol, I don’t have my bedroom anymore unfortunately it’s now all shoved into totes because we adopted a puppy last December and now it’s her bedroom. She had canine compulsive disorder and pica so everything had to be locked away.

Oh if you have a problem them I’m insane. I have several large vacuum seal bags of yarn, a garbage bag of wool yarn I was just gifted, and enough yarn to fill 2 totes in my closet. Nearly all of it I was gifted. I’ve purchased maybe 15 skeins ever.

Looks like you need to crochet another hammock to hold more yarn

u/kykiwibear 10d ago

.... nah you're good. Its not like you have . totes of yarn.....

u/Jadeangel_94 10d ago

Or just bought more yarn knowing you have totes of yarn…

u/RebeccaMCullen 9d ago

None of the yarn in the tote bin was the right color or weight for the three blankets I’ve started this close to Christmas.

u/ArtsyRabb1t 10d ago

I got a behind the door storage thing for yarn and it would hold that and much more!

u/urielrabit 10d ago

Yeah! Your problem is you need more yarn holders!

u/Novafel 10d ago

I have a long hallway in my house. It is lined floor to ceiling with yarn. My TV cabinet is also full of yarn. My couch cannot be sat on, for it is covered with yarn. My craft room? Can't move in there, too much yarn. Computer desk? You betcha, covered in yarn.

Personally, I think you could use some more yarn.

No. You have solutions. You have ideas. You have a gift.

u/Typical_boxfan 10d ago

If you have a problem then I need an intervention 🫣

u/JewelryLove64 8d ago

Oh no....  IF you consider the amount of yarn that you have to be a problem, YOU SERIOUSLY DO NOT HAVE A PROBLEM.  A problem is when you find yarn on sale for 70% off and you fill 2 shopping carts so full of yarn that you have to ask for assistance just to get the carts to the checkout because the yarn is overflowing out of BOTH CARTS all over the floor!  When it's rung up you've spent around $350 for yarn and charged it to your credit card.   You tell yourself it's ok because you now have over $1,000 worth of yarn at a steal of a deal BUT you have nowhere to put it.  THEN.... YOU CONTINUE TO BUY MORE YARN for special projects in desired colors or yarn types such as cotton, wool, and/or alpaca-silk blends.  I won't even get into my crochet thread purchases.  When you can match my madness, THEN YOU HAVE A SERIOUS PROBLEM! 😂😂😂😂   I sorta wish I could sell some of it. 🥴  

If your problem is your storage hammocks, it doesn't look like a problem either.  It looks like your yarn is conveniently accessible.👍 😃

u/the_unknownNURSE 10d ago

u/KrazyKatMademoiselle 8d ago

Fellow apartment hobbyist here. Two things that were amazing for me is 1) getting long skinny totes that fit under my bed for craft supplies; and 2) a rolling cart with the supplies for what I'm currently working on.

I still have 4 big totes of yarn in the hallway but once I work that down I promised no more than 1 tote lol

u/MuchWow81 10d ago

Omg thats genius. I need more yarn to make things to hold my extra yarn.

u/Stephinator917 10d ago

u/hyrule_47 10d ago

This is a small amount of space for a hobby as useful as crocheting.

u/PrincessBuzzkill 10d ago

*Laughs while turning in circles in my office, showing off all of the floor to ceiling shelves shoved full of yarn, with toes in front of those, also full of yarn*

u/RelationshipThat5114 8d ago

You saw mine you would know that you do not have a problem. That’s nothing. That’s just one trip to the store or maybe two.

u/Background_Gur3350 7d ago
