I'm embarassed to let you know I just now(June 22) read your wonderful blog and discovered my great good fortune to be the first beneficiary of your yarn stash will. Do I need to worry if you die suddenly of mysterious causes that I will be suspected of doing you in? Your affection for me and the gift of learning to knit is heartwarming. I hope you are doing well as we haven't talked in awhile.

And the youngest spins. I've always just assumed that they would inherit my stash. Perhaps that's naivity on my part to assume that they'd want it.

I have a living yarn will, where I have instructed my husband that should something happen to me he must give all my yarn to my knitting buds and they can have a party and divvy it up among themselves, being careful not to spill any red wine on the goods.Mary Louhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05588244535423212079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7583857867652090050.post-12011681319028157902009-05-20T01:09:38.489-07:002009-05-20T01:09:38.489-07:00I'm lucky, my daughter loves knitting too and will...I'm lucky, my daughter loves knitting too and will definitely grab my stash - probably before my body has gone cold!!<br />I just wanted to say that I LOVE the way you write - so clever and so funny ... definitely gonna fav your blog!<br />lotsa love, luluLuluhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05315533053320667683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7583857867652090050.post-77615758632191597312009-05-19T21:14:58.020-07:002009-05-19T21:14:58.020-07:00love this idea.

He knows they get dibs on my stash. The local ones will probably get first choice. *laugh* And since I have a small stash, and only high quality stuff, there won't be anything left for Goodwill. Great contest! I hope I win, I could sure use a stitch saver. :)Sharon Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09138838305306645079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7583857867652090050.post-52923739721389557962009-05-19T19:34:00.100-07:002009-05-19T19:34:00.100-07:00I'm a step ahead of you.

I have friends who I meet with once a month and we have already decided that if anything should happen to us, it would be up to the remaining ones to get the stash. Since we all love to do other things other than knit, like cross stitch and quilting/sewing, it would all be collected and divvied up among them. I don't add a monetary value since they know the worth, what should stay and what should go.Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16660761635166286074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7583857867652090050.post-92109055285091966702009-05-19T15:18:07.029-07:002009-05-19T15:18:07.029-07:00I'm sure my DH would give my yarn and all that goe...I'm sure my DH would give my yarn and all that goes with it to my knitting BFF.
