2011 Stashbusting CAL

[MouseCLP]

Wow, lots of ups and downs this week, and lots of to-the-moon and back!

WTD +2

YTD +66

[dragonpuck]

I've been MIA

 

scores would have been minimal anyway- making scarves with pounders has not allowed me to make much of a dent in my stash, but I found the 12" CAL again and thus

 

 

WTD +5 YTD +263

[yarn_geek]

I bought ten skeins and used up one measely, peasely ball. WTD: -19; YTD: -836

[Shannart]

Lots of projects this week, but only finished up 3 balls on stashghan and crochet rug.

 

Completed:

 

Traci's washcloth and face scrubbie

Peggy's washcloth

Baby hat for charity, starting the booties tomorrow.

 

Totals: +3 WTD/+3 YTD

I probably should at least visit the moon considering the size of my stash right now. I'm re-organizing and so far I have 14 boxes and plastic tubs, and I'm still counting

[Crafty Witch]

Got another big fat zero. 0 WTD/-68 YTD. Well, with any luck, I'll use up my ChaCha next week finishing my scarf.

[CLLinda]

Thanks for the nice scorekeeping. Bronze with a +4! Pretty good week!

 

[TCarra]

Oh my goodness! I'm totally surprised!!! Wow!... Well, don't anyone expect me to catch the gold next week. I'm working on a baby blanket that changes colors every two rows. It's gonna take me a while to get through a skein. (Besides, I really want someone else to get that high score before ya'll start boo-in' me!)

 

... I think I'll order some yarn this week ...

[Fiberfolly]

Yay, I don't seem to be on the moon after all!!

[FrLopLady]

Hey Deb how is that new Joann's in Marysville? Does it have a bigger yarn dept than the old one by Jones & CO? I've wanted to check it out, but just never seem to get the time when i'm over there

Here's a simple Halloween pouch that I plan on making a few of. I'm changing the drawstring to black though.

[cris]

excited - I was able to go to HL AND (yes *and*) Michael's today and only walked away with 1 book on knitting socks.

 

not bad, eh???

[TCarra]

Those baby hats are adorable ~ and I just love those Halloween pouches, too! So cute!

Oh, it's over by the New Costco on the west side of the freeway. That part of Arlington now belongs to Marysville .
