2011 Stashbusting CAL

[TurtleLvr]

That is ADORABLE!

 

Thanks! One of the girls at work turtle-napped him! His name is Eggbert.

 

Feel better!

 

[basjordan]

I just finished this guy. He gave me a +1. Working on a bear now that will add another +1.

I'm madly in love with him!!! Eggbert was the name of my firstborn while he was still in utero. (His name is David now.)

[PBLKNP]

Putting in my totals now, while I still remember. I've been sick this week, so I'm liable to forget on Saturday.

 

I was strong this week (okay, I was sick and couldn't go out yarn shopping ), so I managed to use up 2 skeins:

 

Stashbuster Total: WTD +4 YTD +38

Happy to be on the positive side so far this year...

[Wrennie]

I still have today to possibly get a skein busted. Did lots of stitching but no busting.

[TurtleLvr]

I'm putting in my totals today too since we're heading out of town tomorrw for a couple days. Plus since I work tomorrow there will be no yarn shopping.

 

WTD: +4, YTD: -14

 

[Shell Lee]

Trying to get more crocheting in tonight before I pass out. Bought 13 skeins this week. Have used up 8 skeins worth so far. Going to try to use up a bit more.

[cris]

oh my score is terrible. gonna go ahead and post now because I know I'd rather take the positive for next week LOL

 

WTD -29/YTD -23

[FrLopLady]

wtd -28 as of 3/4

ytd -97

 

posting tonight since I won't finish my project I'm working on tonight anyway. Tomorrow busy all day at a rabbit show, board meeting for the state rabbit club tomorrow night AND then drive home

 

Pray the pass to home is clear tomorrow night. Was great today, but a sloppy mess again tonight

[cris]

hehehe and to think, I just used up 1 more skein *face palm* I didn't think much would come between -29 and -27... guess I was wrong. a FrLopLady does *winks*

[BigPinkPolkaDot]

Still big goose eggs. I'm just starting to be able to pick up a hook, in short spurts of maybe 10 minutes each. The doctor suggested I wear an "elbow strap." Maybe that will help with my movement and the pain.

 

For week ending March 5, 2011:

 

WTD: 0 / YTD: 0

[walker1021]

Finished two projects this week - a yo yoghan and a shawl. Sounds like a lot, but not much points wise. (will post pics if I ever get them taken)

WTD +3

Next week it should be better (hopefully). Making Rose Red's flannelghan for my son. Since it is a 2 stranded project and it goes really fast, I'm hoping for a good positive #.

[greyhoundgrandma]

I used four skeins in my son's afghan to offset the 15 skeins of cotton I bought. I'm working on a baby blanket, but it's three colors so finishing skeins is going slowly.

 

WTD -22/YTD -193

[Ellie 13]

I started a scarf on Tue. Used 1/2 (+/-) a skein and rolled the rest down (+1) . I found a ball of white thread and the snowflake pattern books. Now where did I put my doily hooks ? I made 83 shamrocks and have 24 left. I hope that's enough, because I'm out of green again. People are asking what I'll make for Easter. It's never ending.

WTD: + 1 YTD: + 26

I have been knitting baby booties for the Baby Shower at the church next Sunday.

 

Unfortunately, they don't use much yarn.

[cris]

[cshort]

I made some progress on my baby afghan this week but didn't finish off any skeins so my score is

 

wtd 0 ytd +26

[pineknott]

two wks in a row

wtd 0

[Shell Lee]

WTD: -9

YTD: +22

I bought 13 skeins this week, and used up 8.5 skeins worth this week. Going to crochet more tonight, but the current project on the hook (a boring bland door snake... hubby picked the color...) wont use up much yarn before midnight. I want to get it done asap because we have a bit of a draft coming in under the front door, and the current door snakes that we have are not long enough to cover under the door. Of course...those door snakes are nice and colorful!

 

hubby goes "They really dont go with our house. Can you make one in brown?" So I searched the stash and found a beige that goes with our carpet, and I'm adding in a row occasionally of a darker brown to break up the monotony.
