If you buy yarn for a specific project, keep the yarn and pattern together. If the pattern is in a book, write the name of the book, author, the page pattern is on and any other info you want to remember on a 3x5 card and keep with the yarn. For small amounts of yarn buy plastic shoe boxes at the discount store. For larger projects use larger storage containers, try to buy ones that stack as you can make use of a small corner, by stacking containers.
If you have the wall space use 2 litre pop bottles. Cut the bottoms off
and feed the yarn through the neck, then screw them to the wall.
Those tall plastic toilet paper holders work for balls of yarn. And a curtain rod put up on wall if hole in middle of ball of yarn too. That is good space saver. Just those thin curtain rod ones for valances etc. rfhough
You can buy plastic drawers that are stackable.
