Which brings me to a dream I have. Currently my yarn is in my bedroom. Along with my wheel, a large cubby unit that holds ALL my yarn, a dresser, a queen size bed, two bedside tables and a floor Ott light. This is my present yarn studio. I don't claim any longer to have a bedroom, I have a yarn room with a bed in it. My dream is someday I will have a dedicated yarn room or dare I say a studio. I guess the luxury I have is I can plan and dream and decide what I would have in that studio. Interweave has a new issue of its magazine Studios out and the amazing organized chock full of crafting goodness just made me long and dream about what mine would like like. I think one of the things I'd like is some type of island that would have a top that I could use for blocking out my completed knitting. It would have shelves underneath that I could fill with baskets of roving and yarn. A practical item but at the same time one that would be a feast for my eyes and yet keep me organized. I want a place where I could hang yarn to dry as I set the twist. It would have a wall unit of some type that would be flexible enough to hold skeins of yarn as well as my books and magazines (which would be magically organized so I could find whatever pattern I wanted). Someday I will have this type of space. But right now, I'm happy in my version of a yarn room. It is filled with yarn and fiber. My girls come in and spend time with me all the time on their own (I know!). I'm blessed.

Your organizational dream sounds lovely.... I would assume Ikea would have that sort of furniture. Tho it sounds like you may not have room for it now.
In the meantime, you can literally sleep in and roll around in lovely roving and yarn. Like so many of us *talk* about doing. ;-)
That sounds like a lovely studio. I too would like a studio some day, or at least something more than a corner of my tv room.
