2011 Stashbusting CAL

[walker1021]

Hey Sue ~

Red Robin sounds pretty yummy. And thanks for leaving something for me to buy in the yarn aisle. Still not sure what will be leaping into the basket. I'm sure you'll be able to help me figure out something. You always do.

[TurtleLvr]

ok now I know I can buy at least 12....

 

 

 

aww I am jealous.. I know my mom would have loved to go yarn shopping, but she is no longer here. Wonder what one would crochet/knit/sew in Heaven? She always loved to do all 3

 

Cherish the time!!

 

Yeah, but Sunday is in another week.

 

One time we'll invite her to come with us. She'd love that. I'll share my Mom with you.

RR it is! I'll help you find some yarn to buy, or just throw it in your cart.

I think this is the last of the yarn from the cleaning out of my sister's house, -72. No crocheting time so far this week, maybe this weekend.

I used all but a yard or so of a ball. I'll count it as used and add the rest to my wonder ball (+1). I got all 20 turtles done and started on butterflies again. I might get more used this week. The library is closed on Sundays from the end of May til school starts in Sept. (after Labor Day ). I'll have to post on Sat. or earlier for the summer.

WTD: + 1 YTD: + 77

WHEW! I thought I was shooting the moon, but you saved me!

Started working on a purse tonight. Want to get it done before Sue and I go shopping on Sunday. Maybe she will help me figure out how to line it and put in a zipper. Or should I add a button?? decisions, decisions :think

You do realize I've never lined a crocheted bag...right?

Sure do, but figure with our two little pea brains we can figure something out.

[TurtleLvr]

Finished another tote. +3!

Speak for yourself! I don't like peas.

 

[PBLKNP]

Okay, I'm putting in my totals now, so I don't forget!

 

This week, I made a bit more headway with the stash. I'm almost out of the negatives for the YTD total...

 

Stashbuster Total: WTD +4 YTD -5

:cheer:manyheart

[greyhoundgrandma]

I hope to finally have some crocheting/relaxing time this evening and tomorrow, but I don't expect to finish a skein soon, so here are my scores:

 

WTD -72 / YTD -481

[CLLinda]

I'm posting early for the weekend. It should be a busy weekend around here.

 

My son is graduating High school on Saturday! It's bittersweet. No one will be in High school any more. Now, trying to pay for college for two kids is another story.....

 

 

WTD=+17 YTD=+3

[CLLinda]

By the way, it is the end of the month, so I will be posting the scores after church for the YTD scores on Sunday.

 

Good luck, everyone!

 

[TurtleLvr]

WTD: -16, YTD: -9

 

Finished another tote last night. Figured I'd post now since I won't finish anything else tonight.

 

[walker1021]

Worked some on the coasters for the Felted Coaster Class and also worked on my no brainer project - the little granny square afghan. Hope to work on the afghan some more tonight, so I'll hold off on posting my score til tomorrow morning. Here's to a great day for everone!!

[FrLopLady]

I won't have my score until I get home tomorrow night (Sunday). It won't be pretty either... there was a Hobby Lobby on the way to the show in Montana

 

I don't know how much I bought and won't know until I get home. But I think I'm reaching for the moon or at least real close to it!!

[yarn_geek]

Up until today, I was rocking a zero for the week.

 

I'd managed to completely ignore :grump the clearance yarn at work.

 

But then, today, it got me!

 

All the clearance yarn went down to .99 a skein!

 

So really, what's a girl to do?

 

 

 

 

WTD: -60; YTD: -736
