Ahhh...you are multi-tasking!
This is why I have about 6 plastic bins with partial quilt tops in them...to mention All The Knitting Projects.
I see you understand how these things work!

Most definitely.
I purchased from Amazon a large plastic crate on wheels and lidded. It has a capacity of 145 litres and can still hardly hold everything!
I have more than one of those.
But we won't tell Mr. Lori about that...
Hmmm............I wonder if I could sneak a second one in without Mr Fluffy Thing noticing?
My guess is that you could...

In the end I didn't have to sneak the 2nd crate in, as Mr Fluffy Thing himself suggested I could probably do with a 2nd one.
I jumped at the chance, of course!
Was it a Christmas gift?
An earlyish one, as we had to take advantage of a special offer, but it did actually arrive shortly before Christmas which let us stash away the overflow from the 1st one and tidy up for Christmas.
Perfect!
My sister and her very handy husband are currently building a single shelf up high on two walls of my sewing room so that I can store multiple clear bins with color-sorted fabric scraps. Itâs my birthday gift from them. ðŽ
Sounds handy. What I'm intending to do with the two crates is have one storing future projects and the other storing current stuff. As the current projects get finished any left-over yarn will go in the other crate and a 'future' project will be moved to the 'current projects' crate.

I don't know...I heard it's a gateway craft.
What are you making?
Gateway to what Lori?
It's just a blanket - don't think my wonky hand will be up to more than that, crochetwise!

Well you are doing 100%better with one wonky hand than I could with two non wonky hands
I enjoy crocheting (only 1 stitch to drop!), but I tend to stick to small stuff and animals, I like knitting but I knit slowly, currently knitting dresses for my granddaughters naked dolls!
Machel, those hats are gorgeous little things!! I bet they are much appreciated, too.

Thank you Lori, there is a local knitting and crochet group who make these hats as well as bootees, cardigans for premature babies and small comfort blankets, they are then delivered to Lincolnshire neo natal units

Pretty! I can't tell how big it is, though?
At the moment it is 15.5 x 12 inches. Finished article should be a bit bigger!
