Yarn For My Next Project

At the Churchill Weavers auction last summer I picked up a plastic barrel to use for a rain barrel. The barrel had been used to collect scraps of yarn from the looms and was still full of yarn.

Being the pack rat that I am, I couldn't throw it away, so I sat down and balled up the colors I wanted to use for an afghan. This is about half of it, so I should have plenty. The biggest drawback is that these balls of yarn are made up of pieces about a yard long, so there will be a lot of piecing. The yarn is fuzzy, so the ends shouldn't slip out. I can't wait to see what the colors look like crocheted together.
