And Shoot the Moon, with a -1 goes to Makinofastar.

 

Congratulations to everyone. This was a good first week! I am happy that I stayed strong, and didn't start anything new.

[Makinofastar]

I had a feeling I would be shoot the moon lol.

Hi everyone! I'd love to join another CAL and WIPbusting would probably be a good one for me! I have one question though... what if you start a project, then decide you aren't going to do it at all? For example, I had started a hexagon scrap afghan and realized I was never going to sew all those hexagons together, so I frogged all of them. Not that this will happen again, but thought I'd ask.

 

Count me in though!

If it's been taken apart, and you don't intend to work on it anymore, it's no longer a WIP, so you earn a point for having one less WIP. Does that sound right to everyone?

[a_stitchintime]

sounds right to me!

 

I am still plugging away on a couple of WIPs, haven't finished anything, but haven't started anything new either...

 

Hope you are all getting there on your WIPs... Congrats to you, NeedleArts! +7! Wow!

[Makinofastar]

I started another project tonight but finished it so I'm still at 0!

 

Got the pattern from here http://www.suncatchereyes.net/LittleEmo.html

Adorable! Love the way the hair turned out.

With three previously started afghans on the hook I'm slowly plugging away. I will be AWOL starting Thursday and back next Tuesday so I won't be able to post this weekend. Can't decide if I should take a crochet project with me....hmmm....

I know you didn't ask, but my vote would be for taking the crochet project. Of course, I keep one in my car at all times, in case I need it. Don't let me be too far from my hooks and yarn.

[Braxxi]

LOL...I always take a project with me when I leave the house...the one time I forgot I regretted it horribly!

 

I finished another Black-bottom Bag Set yesterday:

[a_stitchintime]

oooh, what a pretty set!!!!

 

for sharing the pics!

[Mollyanna]

School got out today so to celebrate I started a scarf that someone asked me to make. That puts me at -1 so far, but if I work fast, I can get it done before the end of the week!

[a_stitchintime]

I think I can....

I think I can....

 

...finish a WIP this week!

Go, Girls GO

Whip those WIP's!

 

I finished a hat, and started a hat, so I'm at 0. No motivation to crochet. I thought I'd get a lot done while my dh is out of town, but it doesn't look that way.

[Makinofastar]

I'm at -1 for the week right now, I'm starting a hat. My WIP are all large projects, and I need small ones to help me break up the pace.

[Mollyanna]

Well, I didn't finish the scarf yet - the yarn is mohair, and I get tired of working with it after a while. It's so thin, it's like crocheting with a spiderweb. So, to break up the project, I started and finished a potholder, then started a kitchen towel. That puts me at -2 for the week so far.

[JennyT]

LOL - I think I need this one even more than the stash-busting CAL! I am notorious for starting a project before I've finished the last one (or three).

[basjordan]

JennyT. I will add your name to the list as soon as I'm done greeting you properly! I hope you enjoy our group, and find it motivating to finish things before starting something new. It's helped me already.

[Braxxi]

I started...and finished a small RR for my son to play with. Don't ask me why, but he loves to play with afghans.

wtd +1

ytd +1

[basjordan]

Braxxi, your rr is lovely!

[Makinofastar]

I started a hat and finished it, but I don't like it so I'm gonna frog it. I guess either way I'm at WTD: 0

 

Since I was shoot the moon I'm gonna post scores sometime tomorrow afternoon :-)

[Makinofastar]

Braxxi, I love the RR!

[cat3crazy]

I'm still at WTD - 0, YTD - 0. The only thing that I did all week was make this Tulip Hat. Well at least I picked up my crochet hook this week.

 

 

Here is where you can find the pattern.

[Lilly Flower]

I managed to finish the baby blanket that's been bugging me!
