I am working on a bag using a pounder. Yes, a NEVER ENDING pounder.

[FrLopLady]

if you use the pounder for the main color you can get 2 bags out of one... how do I know...

 

 

Right now I'm at a +5..but did you know that Michaels has a 20% off everything coupon this week??

I used up a pounder making a SBT and Granny Go Round!

 

Of course that coupon is only good the days I'm working!

Shh..don't tell Sue, but I am working on this tote right now.

I WILL NOT BUY ANY MORE YARN...I WILL NOT BUY ANYMORE YARN (of course I refuse to delete my Michaels e-maill with the coupon. Just in case ~ You never know)

25% off yarn on line only at Joann's thought the 14th

[TurtleLvr]

Bought 2 skeins today. Haven't used any up today either.

 

[FrLopLady]

I NEED (yes you have that right... just remember NEED) some RHsoft yarn to begin making some scarves for special olympics.

 

Man wish I didn't have to work today. Self employed but even I have to do some work sometime

 

But there should still be time for Michaels

[fc1123]

well I made two skeins out of a ball for a grand total of +2 but today bought a skein of yarn -2 so again I break even.

[CLLinda]

I'm now working on a giant skein of yarn, so it will take a while before I get any points out of that one. It's probably 14 ounces. Yikes. Why the heck did I buy it?

2011 Stashbusting CAL: WTD: 0 / YTD: +12

 

I've been AWOL quite a while - since last posting on April 21. Mainly because posting zeros week after week gets boring. I'm still at nothing. I could blame it on the "yarden" or this continuing cold weather, but I have to admit that the spirit just hasn't moved me in a long time.

 

I was reading the many posts that mentioned a stash busting tote. Sue answered a query about it with her link. I jumped on it and bought it right away. Maybe that will get me going.

 

I have a 60% off (regular priced items) coupon for JoAnn next week. I'm going to buy a package of those expensive safety pin style stitch markers, at least I tell myself that (they had better NOT be on sale).

 

The part of my stash that resides on my guest bed is all pushed and piled up to one side, as I have my giant suitcase out to pack for a three week trip starting the 21st. Have to get inspired so I'll have something to work on during the flight and airport time. Maybe the tote? Can I smoosh two RHSS skeins into my carry-on along with the snacks, books, camera, binoculars...?

Because it was pretty and soft and oh so cuddly???

3 week vacation??? Oh, so jealous!!! Hope you get your crochet mojo back with the tote. You'll love how it turns out.

Someone else was in a crochet funk. She started making the tote and is on #3!

 

Have a great trip!!

Just used up 2 skeins working on the Stash Buster Tote. Hope to finish it tonight and add one or two more skeins to my score.

[TurtleLvr]

I thought I'd get 1 tote done last night, if not 2, but we lost power for 3 hours. Maybe tonight. Sigh.

 

[walker1021]

Doubt if I'll get much yarn time in today. Going to get my oil changed, lunch with a friend, then come home and do some much needed house cleaning.

WTD = +5

Pretty casual crochet time:

WTD +3/YTD -28

I'm really in the hole this week. My DH took my best friend and I to the annual fabric and yarn sale. I managed to get 170 various skeins of yarn and crochet thread there, of which I have used 14. I also got some fabric, odds and ends and pattern books, I'm sure glad they don't count. My grand total is WTD-312

[fc1123]

well my score for the weekending May 14,2011:

 

WTD:+3/YTD:-4

Holy Moses!!! I am not sure what shocked me the most...170 skeins brought home or 14 skeins used in one week!

Congrats on both accomplishments Wanda!:yarn
