My Stash as of 1/23/15

So, everyone on Ravelry seems all about "Stashbusting".  And there are many groups that are doing Stashbusting CAL/KALs.  But, I don't really like the Rav stash function...it's just not my thing...at least not right now.  So, I went and took pictures of my entire stash (I think unless something was hiding somewhere) in piles.  And I'm gonna post the pics and then I shall be able to see what I have.  It's not TOO MUCH.  At least not compared to what some people have.  I actually think it's a pretty nice amount.  I always have options...and I can come up with enough from what I have to only need to buy a thing or two to finish most projects.  Just a warning avert your eyes if you hate acrylic...it's mostly acrylic, RHSS at that.

On with the pictures (excuse the poor lighting, had to take pictures when and where I could)...

The following yarns were hiding upstairs in the corner of our classroom (which we aren't currently using for school).
Here are cases that I got on sale at yarnfactoryoutlet.com.  They contain:
Bernat Baby in Pyjama Party 11 skeins(#4 892 yds)
