I am just kickin' butt and taking names this week!!!

 

I just wrapped up 9 skiens of "odd" yarn a crochetville member wanted as an RAOK - WOO HOO

 

I am just about to finish another skien, most likely by tomorrow morning!

OK, I *had* finished 1 1/2 skeins of yarn on this "loopy" chemo cap on headhuggers.org. WEll, it's one of the worst written patterns (confusing and vague) and to top it all off, the darned thing came out HUGE. I mean RASTA TAM huge! So now, I'll be ing those skeins. BUT I'm not taking those points away, as I'll be making another hat with the same yarns ASAP. What a waste of time, though. It looked cute in the picture.

I made some decent progress today, considering i've been at work most of the day, I got a pair of botties done (not stitched up yet) and another preemie hat, once I get home I have a bunch of pictures to take and upload! The booties and the hat each used up a ball, so i'm plus two more!! that makes my total for the week.... 4!! thats all I had last week, so i'm definitly doing better, unfortunatly I think it slows down from here, i'm breaking into a pounder for a baby set... Oh well! :hook

Clare thanks for the link on the Edgery Doo. I hadnt heard of it before. What a great tool. Imagine doing quilting and no sewing involved.

[goofy]

I used up three skeins of yarn on a baby blanket yesterday but didn't have enough and had to by two more skeins.....+3-2=+1 Ya!

[acrhrttcwgrl]

Used 2 skeins for hat and scarf

1 skein for another hat

[kellyrox]

Doh, you guys are totally beating my booty! I've ALMOST finished one skein and a ball on some finger gloves. Ugh! I'll never win at this rate. *tear!* You guys are a total inspiration though, Imma kill dis yarn! *punches yarn* Oh darn, that didn't work...

[Jimmie Lu]

Hey Knic Knac we are neck in neck lol!!! I have 36 lets go!!!

[RoseRed]

 

8 1/2 FEET across from point to point!

[KnicKnac]

Wow Rose, that is really NICE!

 

Jimmie Lu, I am about to go low, I have to order yarn to finish a project! Oi vea!

[Nght]

If I work faster, I might be able to stay ahead before the eBay yarn arrives

Yesterday I used... 3 partials + 1/2 of a skein for donation squares, 1/2 of a skein for baby hats, and I finished a 1lb'r that I'd started the other day on anuther round ripple. +7 more for me

[crafterjackie]

Wow Rose that is beautiful! I used up two balls yesterday.

[comfort80]

i don't have a stash yet, everytime i buy yarn for a project, its "just enough"

help me build a stash!!!!

[CDBear]

OK....I'm in trouble. I went to Tuesday Morning after work last night, because I saw their ad in the mail - advertising yarn...... Hey, I was just going to go and see what they had, ok? Well, they didn't have the stuff in the circular, that's NEXT Tuesday, but they did have some other yarn I just fell in love with.....

I bought 4 balls of Cantina, and 4 balls of Kinetic from Manetto Hill Yarnery. I've never heard of them, but they were so pretty, and so cheap ($2.49 each), I just couldn't resist!!

I did, however, finish a skein of RH Navy, and I'm very close to finishing one of RH Grey Heather working on a lapghan, so I'm not THAT bad off.......yet.

[allycat1987]

Rose, that's GORGEOUS!!! You rock to have finished it!!

[jessc031778]

Well, finally used up that yarn that I had made into the UGLY hat, then frogged. This hat turned out normal - I went safe and just made a beanie.

[jollyrancher418]

I finally finished the baby blanket I was making out of Red Heart Baby Seashore; I'll post a picture later.

[angelfire]

In the past two days I have used up 2 (1lb) skeins edging and joining squares for Bindi's comfortghan. I also edged three baby comfortghans for the abuse shelter. I used up 14 balls making premie hats and tonight I am working on bereavement blankets.

[RoseRed]

I always give tennis ball size balls of yarn (in ziplock bags) whenever I give someone a homemade piece. This way if it ever needs repairs they already have the yarn for it.

 

Do those count toward the stashbusting score?

[Nutsaboutcrochet13]

I'm back up to one! Thanks to a ton of yoyos...I don't know what I'll do with them, but they're great for those skeins that nothing seems to fit...they're so quick to make too, it's quite satisfying

[ChayaSar]

angelfire you put me to shame! in the last few days my scrap balls seem to be never ending, and my skeins are infinite, I thought I would have used more black than I have with my yo-yo ghan, maybe soon I'll feel like I'm accomplishing something,

[bama_belle]

I finished off two more balls last night making towel toppers and started on a skein of black of which I'm making some unmentionables for myself.
