Happy New Year! Last year was the first year that I started tracking my yarn yardage in order to see how much yarn I use on a monthly basis. After keeping track of each project, here is how much yarn I used in 2008….drum roll please…

63,613 yards

36.14 miles!!!!
No joke! I used an average of 5,000 to 8,000 yards of yarn a month, quickly adding up to a total such as that. I’m really kinda shocked at how much I used last year.

My resolution for 2009: Keep using up the stash, without adding too much more to it (let’s be realistic, I will probably add some yarn to it).
