2013 Stashbusting CAL

[Addicted2patterns]

So far I bought 1 skein and used up 2. But I need to buy at least 1 to finish a scoodie I am making. I am hoping to use up another one by this weekend on the blanket I am making for xmas.

Bought 2 skeins today for the scoodie. So back in the negative.

Posting early. Possible ice storm conditions headed this way and MUCH to do this weekend to get ready for Christmas. Hope we don't lose power because I have some cooking (to freeze until Christmas) that I want to get done. So I don't anticipate any change in score....

WTD -4

[crabby rat]

I just checked on my JoAnn's order, and it's still "in process" so I don't anticipate receiving it this week... perhaps next week, though.  I should probably get busy hooking something in the mean time... LOL

[VikingRunnerGirl]

-4 for me yesterday... Two skeins from Joann's for friendship granny square crocheting!

[pineknott]

wtd +4 ytd + 116

[BigPinkPolkaDot]

I needed more brown again.  I bought eight skeins and did crochet quite a bit, but earned no points because I was trying to regain the work I did on the shawl before I ripped it all out and started over.

 

For week ending Dec. 7, 2013:

WTD:  -16  /  YTD:  -127

[Just-in]

WTD: +16

 

My Christmas projects are coming along quite nicely

My yarn hasn't arrived yet... (whew!) and I didn't even TOUCH my hooks this week.  (Ugh!)  LOL

 

 WTD +0 / YTD +108 week ending 12/07/2013

[PBLKNP]

Getting kind of nervous about my JoAnn order; I really feel like it should have shown up by now. :-/

I think you might want to double-check your math...

Purchases = -42

Sweater = +3

Baby Blanket = +4

DH Afghan = +2

XMas gifts = +1

That's +10 all together, which would make your final score -32...  I just don't want you to lose whatever you've earned...

My JoAnn's order has shipped, and it's scheduled to arrive Wednesday... that will be 10 skeins arriving here... so you know you have that much wiggle room... LOL

Too bad my Mary Maxim order won't come this week! I ordered on the 29th and it hasn't shipped yet.

[Addicted2patterns]

So far this week I have used up 3 skeins! I am trying very hard not to go purchasing any just yet...very hard.

[crabby rat]

My order arrived yesterday, just as predicted... LOL  I have done some hooking, but not enough (yet) to make any kind of dent in the damage, so it looks very much like everyone here as a 20 point cushion...

I emailed Mary Maxim today. My order from 11/29 still hasn't been shipped. So I won't be able to take advantage of your cushion!

Well that's a bummer!  That's quite a wait - is that normal?  I've never ordered from MM before so I don't know what's normal for them.  I placed my order on the 2nd, and it was here the 11th from JoAnn.  Shipped from Wisconsin Monday, so it took them a week to pull the yarn off the shelf, toss it in a box, and get it out the door.  Then just two days to get here.    I think that was the first time I've ever ordered from them, too!  LOL
