July was never going to be a good month for reducing my total stash (except my fibre stash) due to Tour de Fleece. With a holiday at the end of the month also putting paid to much knitting, the month went a bit like this:
206g Dinorwic – (50% Merino, 25% Shetland, 12.5% Mulberry Silk, 12.5% Baby Alpaca) became 1,022 yards of light-fingering weight 2-ply yarn

I did just manage to finish off another test cardigan pattern before the end of the month, which saved my numbers a little bit (but I only just took photos, hence the delay to this blog post). It used up 1,264 yards of fingering weight yarn
