I finished up that skein....+2. I ordered some yarn (12 skeins) yesterday, but I'm not sure when it'll get there. Knitting-warehouse orders seem to take a while.

The rain missed us again this afternoon. Hoping for some Monday or Tuesday or I'll have to water everything.

[greyhoundgrandma]

I finished the lap throw and made two scarves-- used a skein and 3 balls..+5 = +7.

I'm sending 4 skeins off to a new home today...+8  = +15

This week I have some fotos for Foto Friday

A friend asked me to upsize my Pink is for baby girls" Pattern to a newborn size.

still have some work to do but it looks good so far

 

I finally got the border on my Heartily baby blankie.  working on a Butterfly Kisses dress to go with.

I made 3 preemie hats, used most of a 5 oz. skein. There's wasn't enough left to make anything with, so I put it in a bag with 3 other small balls. I added 1 skein and 2 partial skeins to the bag and took it to the senior center (+ 9  ). I've passed the mid point on the C2C, it's all downhill now  . I should be done sometime next week, then I'll get to roll some  down.

WTD:  + 9    YTD:  + 91

Those are both pretty, darski!

Here are the blue mountain mist lap throw and the woodland afghan that I finally got the ends all woven in on.

 

[TexasPurl]

Well, I've been working on multiple projects all week. I've made some progress but haven't used a whole ball, hank or skein yet. Getting a bit closer though.

Have a great week everyone!

I’m a big nothing this week, too. However, I’m just about ready to sew together the squares for my tree skirt and I’ve started the squares for my niece’s Afghan I’m making her for Christmas. 

So:  WTD = 0

Hi everyone!! This week I did the 2nd part of the Something Magic CAL but haven't used up anything on that. I also used 2 balls on my scrap hexagons (+2) and 3 balls (+3) on a large giraffe I'm making as part of a baby shower gift.

Great job! Another week of no negatives!

[darski]

If y'all want to use up some yarn this Le Nuage Wrap will do the job.  check out those tassels.

 

Posted in Boxing day too.  I have to try this one.

 

[greyhoundgrandma]

That's a pretty pattern!

[Ellie 13]

I gave 3 skeins and 9 balls of to the knit/crochet group at the library tonight (+  15 ). But I took 5 skeins and 1 ball of   (- 11  ). The skeins are 1.75 oz. each, so they should go fast. The ball is about 1/3 of a 7 oz. skein, enough to make 2 hats. I should be able to get them used by Sat. I might finish my C2C this week too.

WTD:  + 4    YTD:  + 95

Cute set, darski! I like those colors.
