With my Fibonacci project momentarily on hold while I try to figure out how to make the project look in life as it looks in my imagination, I turned to the Purl Bee stash basket, a project that has become one of my “go to” project for solace, inspiration, and storage.

Using a 6.0 mm hook and worsted weight acrylic yarns from all corners of my crochet empire, I finished my newest stash bag just before this afternoon’s storm rolled in.

Maybe someday, someone somewhere will find the algorithm that would allow me to calculate a crochet benefit analysis and learn just exactly how many of these bags I need to make from my current stash to house the stash that has not yet been crocheted into a stash bag.

Until then, I’ll have to do it the old-fashioned way, and continue to make stash bags as needed whether it is for solace, inspiration, storage, or all three.
