Mine is in airtight plastic boxes. I have learned from experience that it must also be protected from light and must not be squashed.

In case you've not seen it on FB heres my Dreambird at 18 feathers.

I'm getting rather close to the end of the black yarn, but should be able to get the background done and another feather with enough yarn to do a couple of rows and cast off.

Looking good, Girlie - and will you be knitting faster to try to get to the end before the yarn runs out? Or is that just me?

Sealable plastic boxes for me too, in a large cupboard in the living room.

EP it's lots of short rows. The instructions are quite wordy but once you set the first one it's quite straightforward.

I'll put the pattern in the Dropbox tomorrow.

Lol jabberknit, knitting faster to get to the end before the yarn runs out reminds me of when I cycle faster for the last couple of minutes on my exercise bike to get to the end of the session quicker!
