Ellie 13 Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 I didn't get to post the last 2 weekends. Since Jan. 26th I've used/given away 20 balls (+ 20). I bought 1 skein of pink to finish a UFO I found while going through bins in the basement (- 2) . In the last 2 weeks I finished a baby afghan (UFO), made 3 hats and 6 pocket prayer shawls. So I'm starting this week off great. Hope to have more done by Sat. WTD: + 18 YTD: + 33 Ellie 13 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PAndrus Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 I was bad. I was very, very bad. But the clearance sale at Michael's MADE me do it! 🤣 And they were the big 1000 yard skeins.

Inkked0317 Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 Hi all!! I finished the second mer-corn and finished off 2 skeins there, then made major headway on my ginormous dragon FINALLY and used up 6 skeins there!!! WTD +16 YTD +97 At this point, I'm nearly done with the dragon's wings and then he's all done! And because he's all together, he's huge and taking up a lot of space in my living room lol so I really need to get him done ASAP just fyi for size comparison....my daughter is a typical sized 4 year old laying on the dragon and Hubs is 4 ft 10 inches tall holding it lol 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ellie 13 Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 Love the dragon! I've been working on a purse/pouch thing that hangs around your neck. My brother wants some for him and his friends for passports/wallets when they go to Germany next summer. He sent me a photo of something from L.L. Bean to give me an idea. I've made small purses with neck straps before, but he asked for cotton, a certain size and adjustable straps. A got a prototype done, it took a skein Sugar & Cream with a yard +/- left (+ 2). I'm sending it to my brother to see what he thinks. I might get another one done by Sat. WTD: + 2 YTD: + 35 Ellie 13 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That's a lot of yarn to use in a week! I started to tell you last time that -20 really wasn't being very bad, but thought maybe that wouldn't sound very nice. LOL Do you have plans for the yarn already? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
greyhoundgrandma Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 (edited) I finished a doll blanket and a skein of yarn...+2 = -4.
