2015 Stashbusting CAL

[Ellie 13]

I had trouble with my computer so I couldn't get here. I'll add the points to this week. I made 3 more baby hats and finished the scarf from 2 weeks ago. 1 skein used, 1 skein rolled down and 1 ball used   (+ 4). Sat. I went to the annual church faire. I found a bag with 3 skeins light yellow baby   for $1 (- 6). They usually have lots of , but this year that's all there was (I'd be deeper in the hole if they had more  ). I better get  , since my score is negative.

WTD: - 2  YTD: + 108

It was a bad stash week in my neck of the woods. I finished up a skein on the c2c (+2), then stepmom told me her friend saw the hats I made for thr coworker and wanted one for the winter. The friend's birthday is tomorrow, so I went to Joann's and bought 3 skeins to make the hat (-6). At this point the plan for the hat is hunter green with black and deep red accents. I find out today that she actually wants black with green and red accents. *sigh* No Joann's near my dad's house, so off we go to Hobby Lobby and I buy 3 more skeins of yarn (-6). I did use up one of those skeins tonight though, so I got +2 back. Whew!

 

And I'm operating from my tablet while we're out of town, so I can't mess with font colors and sizes or my signature. If I get on an actual computer, I'll change it.

 

WTD -8 YTD +101

I did crochet this week... not a lot, but there was some hooking going on!  I haven't rolled any of the skeins down yet that I'm making my son's rainbow ripple with, so nothing to count (YET)

 

WTD 0

WTD -4

I bought 2 skeins of yarn on sale. I won't be crocheting for a little till hand heals up. I put it through a wire fence . It's in extreme pain. I got a huge cut right below the thumb. Talk pain. Hopefully will post but it hurts as well.

[Shannart]

I used up 1 ball and rolled 5 skeins into balls.....I've been on a winning streak with trying to use up my yarn balls; I knew eventually I would create some more

I'm sorry...I forgot to post my score this week "or" lack there of.  I didn't accomplish anything this week, so my WTD was a great big "0"!

[greyhoundgrandma]

Thanks for posting the scores, Braxxi! An RV trip to AR this weekend and a trip to the moon, too--both fun!

 

Ouch, owlvamp, hope it heals up quickly!

You can join anytime, just jump in, start with 0, and go from there. Welcome to the group!

So no matter how much I have, I don't count those? Sounds good!

Correct, you start with 0 and count what you use or acquire from this point. If you have a stash like many of us, you would never be able to count it to begin with!

I used 2 balls of black for stuffed spiders and a small ball orange for pumpkin pins (+3)  . I'm working on a stuffed ghost which should use 1/2 of a small skein of white. I might get it done tonight. I have to get some purple for another kid size hat. If I get a small (3.5 oz.) I can use it all and not add more points. Maybe I'll wait until next week  .

WTD:  + 3   YTD:  + 111

I'm in the middle of crocheting an afghan out of Bernat Mosaic, and I'm finishing the final rounds on the squares. I'm almost done, then I can start joining them and doing more rounds of border. Had a good week of crochet time, so I am...*drum roll please*
