In this video, I’m sharing my personal system for staying organized as a knitter! From labeling swatches and scrap yarn to managing needles, WIPs, and yarn storage, I’ll walk you through how I keep everything in order. Plus, I’ll share how I use Ravelry and iPhoto, to track projects and stash. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned knitter, I hope this inspires your own craft organization! #knittingpodcast
