Love the bag and color idea! A couple of months ago I got frustrated with my minis and sorted them by weight in a sterilite 3 drawers ( drawer 1: 5+gr drawer 2 10+gr and drawer 3: 20+ gr) but it’s not a good solution for my leftovers over 20 grams.
I store ALL of my yarn in bags-moth proof and dust proof them. SO..I sort my scraps in their own bags, BUT I also separate by yarn weight. I have a huge number of Knit Picks yarn in the same color and two different weights. I need the weight separation, also. 🙂
Lol knit picks has this one green I kept buying not relizing it was the same color on a different base I knit 2 sweaters with it abd when I finished the second and put it away I relized it was the same color lol apparently I love it
So far I have not encountered any dampness (i have the bags in an open bin against a wall I wouldn't put it by a heater or window that might cause dampness) and no moths. I would assume moths couldn't get at the yarn unless they laid eggs in the yarn before it was put it in the bags.
Great organization tips!! Also...I find so many new cozy mysteries from you! Thanks!
Thank you so much abd I'm glad to help with cozy recommendations any time😉 my problem now is trying to find time to read all these series 🤣
Great tips for organizing! Have you ever tried space bags? They take up less space, since you end up vacuuming out the air.
I tried them with comforters and got agrivated by them 🤣 my ocd kicked in and it didn't look all neat like in the pic and got mad at them

Just found you and subbed because you do books and crochet!❤
Does your method keep moths out and prevent damp in plastic bags
