Creative Yarn Storage Solutions

Yarn has a habit for taking over living space. Here are some simple, creative solutions to that pesky little problem.

 One storage solution is to use wine racks, as seen on Prudent Baby

The next is to store yarn balls in a large glass jar as on The Loopy Ewe

Or you could use coffee cans like on the Lethal Blog

You could also make these interesting water jug containers for your lovely yarnies. You can find the tutorial here on Instructables.

Molly Knight Crafts uses a hanging closet shoe organizer to store her yarn.

And Knot What We Think uses a China Cabinet

Thanks a bunch you guys! I really appreciate it :)

*Just a side note. Many people confuse the different ways yarn is wound, so I'll explain them now, in the spirit of "yarn" week.
