2014 Stashbusting CAL

[crabby rat]

Way to go everybody!  I completely forgot to post my big GOOSE EGG of a score... not that it matters ayway... LOL

 

Sounds like lots of great stashbusting and stashbuilding going on!!  

[greyhoundgrandma]

Good scores on both ends of the list!

Congrats all!!

 

Finished a skein of Hobby Lobby baby yarn working on a doll dress.  Starting off the week with a +2.  Expecting an afghan kit so I need an offset this week.  Better keep crocheting.

Well... Back to my beginning of the year habits.. The moon is nice this time of year. On a positive note, I have finished off 1 skein today and have 5 boxed up and ready toto send to a friend.

Now that I am done for the day (dinner over, kitchen cleaned up, etc) Rosalie is down for a bit I am going to get some yarn & my hook & start some stuff!

I should finish off 2 skeins on my afghan if we ever get Downton Abbey started... I think I'll get one row out of them...

I missed posting my +2...had a busy weekend. Spend most of Saturday rearranging my son's room ( we switched him from the small one to the bigger one...he's almost 14  ) and then me and my wife went to a bar for her co-workers 21st birthday and didn't get home until 1 am. Then had to get up at 6 to pick up my son from his dad (he lives 5 hours away and we meet halfway) cos school starts tomorrow. I will just carry this over for next week. Gotta get hooking!

I finished up a skein last night on the baby blanket. Down to making the cars and trucks to go on it. Hopefully that will use up some of the balls in the kit.

Finished up two skeins on a prayer shawl.  So I'm at a plus 4 for the week, so far.  And since it's in the -45 degree cycle, I'm not going anywhere that might sell yarn.  So it looks like it will be a good for stashbusting, and not buying.

I re-discovered today that crocheting in incredibly difficult with a newborn sleeping on my chest and even more so when he's a GIANT 14 lb 8 oz monster newborn. Of course, when he's not there his toddler sister is trying to help me crochet. this is super cute but super not helpful! I'm seeing quite a few 0 weeks in my future though I think I might have enough scrap yarn to make a decent sized scrap blanket, which should clear up some of this lot!

Haven't used any yarn yet but did make a granny square. It's for 52 Weeks of Granny Squares group I'm a part of on ravelry. It's going for charity.

Maybe he and big sis will coordinate their nap times soon and you'll have some me time!

It's so cold out, for the 2nd day in a row.  Decided to finish up a bunch of wip's today.  Finished two shawls and now working on a hat.  Also finished up another skein on the hat.

 

It's worth staying in and working on wip's.  This way, I can soon start new projects!

I use to hope that but she rarely naps during the day! I might have to sacrifice a ball if yarn and hook to her so I can do it but that would get me some points...

Seems like a worthwhile investment to me...

Yep. Then she can "shay" on her own while her mommy shays her baby brother's blanket. Speaking of which, I finally finished off the first pound skein of that darn thing so +2 this week to me!

Already had to buy a skein to finish a scarf. Well that scarf is done and it was a xmas gift for our grandma but she was fringe on it. So had to buy a whole skein just to do edging...oh well.

 

So I guess so far I am at and even 0

Still haven't used up a skein or ball. I did however make 2 more yellow granny squares.

 

Added leftover orange to scrapghan.

My post Christmas Herschnerrs order came in giving me -48

 

The good news is the skeins are skeins are small so they should work up pretty quickly.  The bad new is they will take for every to weave in all the ends!!!

I used up the last tiny tad bit of orange I had on scrapghan. Does that count as a +2?
