51 balls!!! in one day!! WOW!

[yarndiva]

I used 51 Balls of Yarn today!!!! I'm making a 3 strand Scrap/Ugly-Ghan thing! I'll get some pics of it tomorrow in the sunlight!

 

wow, I can only aspire to crochet as fast and as much as you do

 

WTG!!

[Mom w/a Motif]

Wow. I used one ball up tonight making a spiral scrubby. But 51 balls? Well now that brings my score to 1 this week/now... But with the -16 from last week....

[tamugrad02]

Well, I got one more point. I used about 2/3 a skein of white baby yarn trying to make a shirt for my American Doll. The shirt turned out ok, it fits and everything, but I didn't make a big enough slit in the back to get her arms in the sleeves once the shirt is over her head......I'll try again some other time......

All I can think is 2 ends times 51 balls is more than I wanna sew in! Sheesh! Good work though!!

[rlanto]

Traci, you couldn't have sponken more truth!!! That is more ends then I would have wanted to sew in!

 

I took care of 2 skeins and a ball, so that's 5 points. I think I need to reset my score...

[stargazingirly]

well I did so good the first few weeks, and since then I've been going down hill!!!! I had to buy two more skeins of black for putting together afghans... so -4 for me... but I should use them up pretty quickly, and i've got a baby sweater almost done which should give plus 2.... I'll start going back up here sometime:hook

How is that possible????? WOW!!! Please tell me the balls were teeny tiny.

[tlisley]

My yarn shipment from Herschnerrs is here! YAY! Of course I'm -16 now...lol!But that's ok... I just have to use it right??

[Lavelle26]

Well, I forgot to post my score on Saturday. I had another 2 skeins that I used on Friday for Chloe's birthday sweater which gave me another 4 points. I was kind of tempted to add that to this weeks score since I have nothing for this week yet and it didn't get included in last weeks score...but then decided that wouldn't be right. I used them last week so they will go into my YTD total and I have a whopping 0 for this week so far. (soon to be remedied though. )

[RoseRed]

Amber's home sick from school today. (She's 11 going on 3!) I haven't been able to get anything done except for about 15 dc's for a small sq.

 

UGH!!!!!!!!!

 

I'm so ready for half a dozen margarita's - you guys can pick me up off the floor when you get to Margaritaville! lol

[DesertCrocheter]

Well, I wound up using a half-skein on Friday, which upped my score to 3 for the week, but then I bought 8 skeins on Saturday, which meant I ended up the week at -13. I should have kept a running tally of the number of skeins I used up vs. the number I bought, in addition to my overall score, but didn't think to keep track of that.

I GOT MY BOX TODAY, BIZZY!

 

 

In it was 9 skeins of beautiful yarn - this suede-looking purple stuff and this very cool boucle-looking pinkish vareigated with mohair in it! I love them! Thank you!

 

Oh, and -18 points there...

[Jimmie Lu]

I am starting this week out with a bang!!!!

Motherinlaw 2 skeins for my birthday

9 skeins from shopping

and 7 skeins from bizzyboppers THANKS

so I am at a -36 for the week so far and my birthday is not until Thursday!!!!

[MrsCrochetPants]

How is that possible????? WOW!!! Please tell me the balls were teeny tiny.

Actually, the balls weren't teeny tiny but they were small balls which are worth 1 point each!

 

I just got in an eBay auction today (it smells really bad of smoke ) I'm gonna Febreze it! That's a -45 for me Still in the plus!

[Vibey]

OK, I buckled. Didn't think I would, but I did. AUGH! I SWEAR I walked into Spotlight this morning just to buy hooks, but right in my path there was this basked of Moda Dea yarn. It was $7.99 a ball last year and they're getting rid of it at 99c a ball! So... I bought 20 balls...

 

Off too change my sig now...

 

[tlisley]

Well, I got 3 for today. One skein and a partial. I'm working on about 4 throws (Well 2 afghans, 2 throws) and I keep switching around...lol. Right now it's my new pink camo throw for my oldest dd. I'm going to need a lot more yarn! But I'll hold off till this batch is gone...lol

Off to change my score!

[Bizzyboppers]

Krystal- So glad you like the yarn.

 

Ok what have I done the last two days?? Started and finished a baby outfit and didn't complete a single skein of yarn. That is just wrong. One of the skeins was taken to the point of holding itself together from sheer will, so I'm thinking I earned a point from that one. The others I'm not counting, cuz I could make another baby outfit from whats left. argh.

 

I got another point from a skein of eyelash that went into a hat today.

 

So a whopping +2 for the week so far.

 

btw, did I miss the weeks points post somewhere?

[Krystal16]

No, you didn't miss it. I've been feverishly working on the C-ghan, and it takes me a long time to tally the scores... I'll get there... soon...

[flyinghooks]

Started another WIP today a sweater for my dd for a wedding in April... one skein bites the dust. 2 points for me

[rlanto]

I used another skein working on a dress for myself. I tried on the skirt part and realized that it looked horrible!!! Makes me look 20lbs heavier!

 

So, I'm heartbroken. BUT! 1 more skein out of my stash!

[tlisley]

I earned another 2 pts on the pink camo throw. Man those skeins are smaller than I thought... Maybe it's just because I'm working on one made with Rainbow tones and they seem NEVER ENDING!!

[Lavelle26]

I got another point yesterday for finishing up a used skein of yarn. That makes my total for this week a whole point!!!!

[Krystal16]

Bizzy - a bunch of circumstances led to my kids not making school today, so I'm "Mom Schooling" all of them... otherwise DS10 won't do any of his worlk.... so it's all or none here! CRAZY!
