2008 Stashbusting CAL Game (winners posted #1835)

[Ellie 13]

I made some more squares, used 2 balls (+2). Does anyone know where I can get Fashion Knit yarn, color Lively Limon (sp)? It's kind a of fuzzy, green with yellow yarn. I got it many years ago, I don't remember where (Ames, maybe?). I may have enough for a preemie afghan.

WTD Score: + 8

Very slowly, I am working my way towards makeing my YTD score a zero. VERY slowly WTD +2 Guess that is better than a negative...right????

[LegalWoman17]

My total for the week: +6, total for the year +311

My total for the week: +6, total for the year +311

 

How the heck do you get a score like your ytd? Good for you!

 

[sahm2g1b]

I'm going to jump in here starting next week! This sounds like lots of fun!

[CyM]

-4 for the week.

 

The cupcake yarn is rather disappointing for the amount and price. It looks nice, but I'll just stick with my regular.

[econ-nerd]

Been a slow week for me but at least I'm moving in the right direction

 

WTD: +3 (-24 YTD)

[Nght]

Am working on a thread project (as a request)... so moving slowly

Looks like my current score stands +4

[coolhockeymom]

I have a big fat zero

[yarn_monkey]

I'm so proud of myself- I've really been busting tail this week! Between a sale (+22), then a purchase (-6), making coasters (+5), making an ami (+2), the secret project (+2), and my own new 8 pocket tote (+3), I'm at...

 

WTD= 28 YTD=216

I have a feeling next week won't be so great. I need more yarn for my tote.

[Schmetterling]

My score this week is WTD +9.

[DreamsOfYarn]

Used 5 partials on Mother's Day projects.

Total for the week:

 

WTD: -1

YTD: +87

[Krystal16]

Crazy day here, so I'll be on on Monday morning to tally up scores. Happy Mother's Day!

[laurawithchild]

Oops! I'm bad and didnt post my score last night! +8 for the week!!! And Happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there!

[Ankh]

Not so good this week Michaels had yarn on clerance that I like for baby blankets and I had an entire purchase coupon on top of that so I am WTD -4 But I did finish up some wool in a tapstry piece

[darski]

I have had a brain storm. I am going to hold a contest at my Y Dora Group and get rid of 8 skeins of SS yarn as the prize. Hey this is a lot easier than I thought it would be.

 

:rofl :rofl

 

Why didn't I think of this stuff sooner????

[Crafty Witch]

Sorry, I'm posting this late. I made the mistake of going to AC Moore Friday and ended up acquiring six more skeins of cotton yarn. I have WIM's for them, honest. Anyway, I'm at -12 for last week, and -29 YTD.

[alwayscrafting]

Well I forgot to post again last night... I started at +3 for the week and that's where I stayed. Today so far I just got started on a new project so nothing busted yet.

 

Welcome to the new gals!

[Nght]

My hand is still cramped, but I did finish a spool of thread and opened a 2nd... have about 26 more rows to do on this runner,

join the pieces & crochet a border +2

[Krystal16]

I rolled two skeins into balls last night!!! +2

[yarn_monkey]

Well, I'm off to a slow start! Thank you Michaels & Joanns, I bought 4 skeins of Sugar & Cream Sunday (-8), but I used up one ball of it (from last week) and turned another one into a ball, so now I'm at -6 for the week so far. My plan is to finish up this 8-pocket tote this week and be back in the positive by Saturday!

[CLLinda]

On another thread, they suggested shopping at Smileys.

 

Great prices but a minimum of $40 to make an order. Which, at the cheap prices they have, would definately kill my score. I'm staying away from that website.

 

May go to HL with a coupon today for "I love this yarn.

 

We did pretty good this week. It's so tempting to buy yarn. But most of us can resist. At least, to a point!
