Good for you.  I find those skeins seem to go on forever.  I use larger skeins but those 'seem' to go on.

The past week and a half has been insane and I never posted last Saturday, so I'm just going to update my signature to reflect the two balls I used up on a scrap blanket.

I've been sick this week and finishing up the work here at the house before we go to apply for the loan on Friday, so I haven't touched yarn or hook at all. Going through fiber withdrawals lol. And Hubs is prepparing to head out with the Army for the next 3 weeks, so all in all it's been a stressful week...

Please send prayers/good vibes/positive energy my way Friday morning. Getting this loan would mean my mom could come live with us and we all REALLY want that to happen, ASAP. Thanks in advance.

[greyhoundgrandma]

Darski, those are all pretty! 

Debbie, I have a couple of cakes but haven't tried them yet. Glad you got through with it.

Jessie, good luck with the loan! Sounds like a really busy time for you.

Will keep you in prayer.  May God bless you and yours.

Jessie, I hope all  goes well with the loan. Prayers sent!

I finally finished a WIP with that Mandala yarn. With 1/2 a cake left. Rolled that up and can add +1 to the tally.

It's a free pattern called Erigeneia.It must be wishful thoughts for cooler weather. I wasn't sure if I would keep it since I'm not really the shawl type. But once I wrapped up in it...well, sorry not sorry, I'm keeping it.

Thank you! I used 2-1/2 skeins of Centaur. I honestly think the camera lightened the colors a bit. But still very pretty.

[greyhoundgrandma]

Very pretty, Debbie!

[TexasPurl]

Better post early. We've got a full day with the grandson today. A bit of shopping, a movie, lunch, then off to the splashpad! Nana's gonna be pooped! Have a great week everyone!

WTD +3

[darski]

didn't get any crocheting done at all today so...

WTD = + 10,  YTD = + 26

[greyhoundgrandma]

I didn't make it to the next color that would be the last of the skein, so....

WTD +2

[Inkked0317]

I am loing all these projects everyone has posted!!! 

So, bad news, I haven't touched yarn in a while so no score for me this week. 

Good news,  we were approved for the loan! Closing date is 7/2 and then we should be able to start on the build! I'm so excited!!!

[greyhoundgrandma]

Congrats on the loan!

[PBLKNP]

I’ll probably post the scores in the afternoon. We drove 2+ hours back and forth to a family event and we’re both beat!

from Friday thru Monday we have dealt with feeding tube failure,finally fixed

for the first time in a long time,I just couldn't pass up the 2.00 yarn at Michael's but did keep it to three skeins,amazing what a tight budget does for yarn buying

so far at - 3,hope to at least bring it to zero by Saturday

[greyhoundgrandma]

Glad you got the problem fixed, lyn! It's hard to resist those prices--worth having a negative for a while.

[pineknott]

made it,now I'm at +1

[greyhoundgrandma]

I used a skein on the woodland blanket.

[darski]

I am doing a major declutter purge so I am donating 56 skeins of fake fur/ novelty yarns for +112 points and I finished another skein making hats so this week so far it's + 114

I will likely get rid of more skeins or balls but I wanted to post this while I remember it
