I can tell you I have four fleeces, two white, two black.
I can tell you I have a total of 1,776 yards of handspun not yet knit up. I did manage to get that counted up.
And I can tell you I brought home 12.5 pounds of fiber from Rhinebeck this year. But as for the rest of the fiber, I confess: I gave up. I have no master list, no total tonnage for you. Instead, I visited with my friend Elizabeth, I did housework (a shocker!), I paid bills, I rounded up boxes in which to send out the yarn I'm giving away (I still need a couple more boxes, just to warn you), and I had pumpkin pie and an apple for dinner. I simply could not face any more turkey.
However (signal the trumpets), I am exceedingly thrilled by the fact that I have given away, especially with the valiant efforts of Sue and Elizabeth this weekend, a grand total of...
of that part of my stash whose yardage I can measure. Plus a sweater's worth of red mohair. I am right pleased with myself. Perhaps I should go look at some sale yarn somewhere tomorrow....

12.5 pounds of fiber!
You leave me speechless.
At least all that fiber can be used for insulation this winter. :)
MY brain hurts, let alone yours. I am so impressed that you are getting this stuff done.
Did you buy yesterday? I didn't. I'm so proud.
