There is a lot of space beneath and around the bath, and if the yarn was well guarded from moisture (I reckon those vacuum bags would work well, and they'd let you get more yarn in) then it would be a perfect secret hiding place for stash.orientalmoonshttp://www.ravelry.com/people/orientalmoonsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2958018879127896447.post-37399048928776645402012-10-25T03:54:03.215-07:002012-10-25T03:54:03.215-07:00O what a great contest!!!

I still haven't found all of them. They're everywhere. Under the seats, under the floor, in the roof lining and they're all full of fluff. In fact I discovered you can get two jumpers worth in the hidey hole under the drivers seat, the same with the one under the passenger seat. The inbuilt sunglasses compartments (of which there are five) each take a skein. He never cleans it out so theres no way he'll ever come across any of it.

He watched me like a hawk, bringing things back to the hotel room, thinking I would be limited to what I could carry back on the plane...
