If anyone needs help with changing the font and color, just ask. It's not hard -- I can do it!

[CLLinda]

Way to go, Angelfire! That's a terrific score for Shoot the moon!

 

First time for the Bronze for me!

 

But I ordered a scarecrow kit from Mary Maxim, so I may get a big score in the opposite direction next week. I can't wait to make it for my classroom.

 

[angelfire]

I guess if you are going to shoot the moon, you might as well do it in a BIG way, BTW I will probably get it next week too, I ordered mill ends from Angelicrafts that are due to arrive on Wednesday:eek

 

 

 

:lol:lol

[Krystal16]

oops... forgot to post... I would've been down there with angelfire anyway...

[hseger]

I'll probably stay at zero this week. This thread takes forever to get rid of a full ball of That is if I don't buy any when I run to the thrift store today.

[CLLinda]

I'm trying to be good, but I've ordered that scarecrow kit and Hobby Lobby has the "I love this sport yarn" on sale. I may just have to find a couple bucks and go get some.

 

But I have no control over my car. Sometimes, after my workout, the car just turns into the parking lot on the way home. I just can't help it.

 

[basjordan]

I used another big skein of boucle on my sweater. I am now hoping I have enough to fnish, since I can't behave in a yarn shop.

 

WTD +2

[LegalWoman17]

WOW !! I can't believe I got silver this week. THanks !

[Krystal16]

I hear you on that one!

I am doing 10 doilies for my Games challenge, and I haven't even put a dent into the ball of thread I'm using and I've done 3 of the 10~~!!!

[DreamsOfYarn]

Just busted a skein on one of my Games projects

+2

[econ-nerd]

Another skein into a ball +1

[angelfire]

I was able to use up a skein and a ball making rectangles yesterday. so I am starting the week with +3

[yarncat]

I was +2 for last week,just forgot to post.

 

Crocheting,but not busting skeins.

[CLLinda]

My scarecrow kit came today. That's -18 for the yarn in it.

 

Now, I used up a skein making a dolly dress, so that's +2

 

I'm at -16 for the week. I want to get all the yarn balled for the scarecrow, and then will start making it. Maybe, if I work fast enough, I will end up with a break even on my score.

 

I guess I will stay away from HL. Can't wreck my score any more this week.

 

[angelfire]

I used up a half skein today making backgrounds for squares, off to do some more as every ball counts +4 WTD

[Ellie 13]

I spent Sat. with my parents and 1 brother, so I didn't much. I finished my afghan Sun. . It didn't used up the whole skein though . A little more than 1/2, so I rolled down (+1). I found a snowman hat/scarf set and 1/2 a stocking in a bag of Christmas yarn. Used 2 small balls making the snowman (+2). I might used a ball or 2 on the stocking. If I get started on Christmas stuff, I'll bust a lot of stash .

WTD Score: + 3

Glad that one is done.
