STASH BUSTING crochet-along GAME!! ****CLOSED FOR 2007 ****

[Doula4U]

+3 more for me. I think I figured something out. When I use novelty yarn I got through skeins much quicker than the cheap stuff. lol

 

~LL~

[Krystal16]

I'm not going to be home tonight, so I can't take care of the points 'til tomorrow AM... (Unless I can't sleep, then I'll be on here...)

[scc51055]

i am posting my total for the week now....i may not get to do it before tonight so i will do it now.....+6....another postive week dont think i have gone - at all yet!

[KellyA]

I am posting my points now because I will not be gatting/losing anymore for this week.

Bought a skein on Thursday so that -2 then I used a ball (made into a 12" square for charity work)

So for the week that is 1 point in bustin!!

Going to update my score, keep on crochetin

[RoseRed]

My company left Tues. and I've finally been able to get some crocheting done this week. I finished my baby blanket and I'm almost finished with my round ripple. I'd really like to see it done today. I'd cross my fingers but I'll be using them. 5 more points and hopefully 2 more by posting time.

[flyinghooks]

OK - I was coming on to post a skein on my Sweet Pea shawl and realized that I double posted the points on my BICO (oops!! ) so I lose 5 points from the "2nd BICO" but I gain 2 for a skein on the shawl, and one for some more vintage cardigan squares. That brings me back to 9 for this week, so far. We're snowed in (actually we're all dug out, but it's safer to stay put!) so I'm hooking today!!

 

Here's a pic of the shawl in progress

[Nutsaboutcrochet13]

Well, at least I'm in the positives this week... +1 I'm working up another dragon for someone's birthday. They sure do bust those half-skeins!

[KnicKnac]

Finished another hank for my SP present! WOOT!

[angelfire]

I have a gathering to go to tonight so I won't be able to post later.

For the week I have 75 WTD...after giving 10 skeins of novelty yarns away this morning to someone making scarves for charity. I hope every one did well this week...next week will probably be harder for me to stay positive I am bidding on E-Bay for an afghan I want to make...lots of scrap balls.

[yarndiva]

Gave away 9 skeins so that's +18 more for me!!

 

I think I should just give away yarn as this makes for a faster positive score

OOOOO...pretty!!

 

Ok. I had to buy three more skeins of yarn last night cuz I have a baby outfit to make. -6 pts. I have started on the baby outfit, so hopefully I will gain my points back by early next week.

 

My score for the week is: 33

[Nght]

I think I should just give away yarn as this makes for a faster positive score

 

 

I agree!!

Gifted a full skein to DS#1 & DS#2 took a partial +3

Hopefully will be able to add something more by 8

Great #'s ladies... wish mine were as high in the +'s as they are in -'s

[hseger]

I got 1 more point and that's probably all I will get for the week so my final score for the week is 3. At least I'm in the positive and get to knock some of my -8 ytd lol.

[KnicKnac]

Ok, so I got rid of three small little balls doing one of Cupcake's pot toppers.

 

Finished one more hank on my SP present.

 

Busted two more balls on my ScrapRectangleGrannyGhan!

 

I made it to the positive this week, even tho I had to buy 9 hanks of yarn! WHEW!!!

 

My score this week +1

 

My year to date score is +110

 

Now that is the way to do it! I am DONE crocheting for today...I am going out to eat mexican food (and have a margarita!)!

[Krystal16]

oooh, save a margarita for me! Frozen, please!

 

My yarn came in... from Ebay... it's all wrappd up with priority mail tape in a plastic bag, looks like somebody mummified a little person.... LOL!

 

I'm not sure I can get it open to count the skeins... might take til tomorrow! LOL!

[Krystal16]

Ok... got the bag open... 14 skeins. -28 for me. DARN! And I was above 0 for this week! LOL!

[KnicKnac]

Oh Krystal, did you enjoy the Margarita? I ordered a large just so that I could drink some for you!!! And yes it was FROZEN!!! Did you feel it? I sure do!

 

You are so much MORE woman than me, I would have waited to count the skiens tomorrow!!! I bow to your greatness!!!

[renegade]

I finished up a ball of thread early this morning, plus I used half a skein the other day making squares. This balances out the +2 for the ball of thread I got from my SP.

 

It's a little discouraging to only have a +1 despite all the crocheting I did, but at least the week ended in a positive!

[KnicKnac]

This is all I try to do anymore, that means I am making progress!!!

[stargazingirly]

Well I don't forsee any more points being scored in the next hour, so my total for the week is -140.... :devil I'm not sure i'll ever get back into the positives!! but I also don't forsee any need for more yarn anytime soon!

[Nght]

I finally finished a skein I've been workin' on squares with & 4 more partials for DS#2's uglyghan... +6 more... I don't see anything else coming in before 8. That leaves me with a final score of the week of -385

Well.... considering it was -461, that's not too bad right??

[rlanto]

Alright, I've got 3 skeins down this week, since my last post. I think this is my best week yet!!!

 

Weekly total: +12!!!!!

[flyinghooks]

one more skein on the Sweet Pea - so +11 for me:cheer

[Breger3]

I hope I'm not tooo late!

 

This week I'm in the positive's for the week!

 

+17! Yea!

[jollyrancher418]

I know i'm really late, but I totally forgot to post. I was at +10 for the week, +15 for the year. This is the first week I really stayed in the positive and didn't buy any yarn.
