this is going to make stashbusting much more difficult

I saw that and wondered how much of a pain staying in gauge would be. They're sure pretty. All that I looked at were moss stitch.

I'm making a lap throw with bulky yarn--finished a skein yesterday....+2.

[TexasPurl]

Finished a baby blanket with 1 full & 4 partial skeins of RH Pompadour that's been in my stash forever. Now, I think I'm going to soak it in some fabric softener to see if that will help with course feel of it. +6   

[greyhoundgrandma]

Reminder: This is the last week of the month, so please post both your WTD and YTD scores on Saturday.

[greyhoundgrandma]

2 more skeins into the lap throw...+4....= +6. Hopefully I'll get another used up tomorrow.

[darski]

didn't do any crocheting this week at all

 

WTD = 0  YTD = 148

[TexasPurl]

Was hoping to knock out another skein today on a tunic I've got on the hook. Guess not. Too many other irons in the fire.

I've got a post-it here on my monitor to remind me to post scores tomorrow.

WTD = +6  YTD = -20

I seem to have tons of WIPs, but no movement on stash.  The issue is going to get worse, as my niece has requested an afghan for Christmas.  Not a great hardship,  as I’ve had my eye on a Herrschners afghan kit (Norwegian Star Afghan) for a while now.  I send her a picture, and she loved it!  I ordered the kit and it’s coming next Thursday, so next week’s totals are probably going to be through the roof!  But, in the meantime...

Stashbuster Total: WTD +0  YTD -46

[greyhoundgrandma]

I finished the lap throw and another skein.

WTD +8      YTD +204

[pineknott]

wtd + 1 ytd + 180

Oh, my...Shoot the moon for the MONTH!  It’s going to be worse next week when my Herrschners order comes in!  

[PBLKNP]

My Herrschners order has arrived...I suspect I may be shooting the moon this time around! 

 

[TexasPurl]

Oh my Pam! If that box is full of yarn, I'd be so happy I wouldn't be worried about the Shoot the Moon issue. Enjoy the journey.

[greyhoundgrandma]

Ooh, show us what's in the box!

Hope everyone has a relaxing and safe 4th!

[PBLKNP]

When I get back from our 4th of July shindig I’ll open it up. If I do it now, I’m not going to want to leave the house! 🤣🤣🤣

[darski]

Just saw this on FB

 

     

 

[greyhoundgrandma]

That's funny!

Hi all!

I never posted this past weekend, but I'd used up a skein on a Logo graph bag, so I'll just update my signature with that.

Today I used a skein and a ball finishing the Logo bag, so I'll have something to report on Saturday lol

I need to get back into the habit of posting each Saturday....

[darski]

found the most beautiful skein of hot pink yarn at Walmart...

so WTD = -2

but it is a pounder and I may be able to crochet a bit now that our heat wave is over and use up the skein I am working.

[darski]

finished off that skein so I'm doing a zero sum game literally.  will post officially tomorrow but for now...

-2 and + 2 = 0
