Dragonpuck, I'm impressed! Your hook must be smoking!

 

Tia, I'm very impressed! Your afghan is gorgeous, and absolutely huge. I would love something like that in the winter! I'll bet it's very warm.

 

I busted a skein, so my WTD is +2, and my YTD is -174.

[hseger]

I busted a skein this weekend in the car and close to finishing another skein +2 so far for the week.

I will not buy yarn this week, I will not buy yarn this week, I will not...........

[Tia]

Thanks basjordan!

 

I started another scrapghan today and used a few more balls of yarn. It's going to be one large Granny Square basically, though I modified the design some. I'll post a pic tomorrow and show what I did.

*cough* Went on a bender this weekend and picked up 6 skeins of yarn. Which starts my week of at -12.

[hseger]

ONe more skein down +2 more points to my week!

[appy_lover]

Well, I was out of town and never got to post Saturday, but I finised out at +8.

 

So far this week I am at a comfortable +4, so off to a good start. I am currently working on a scarf from suede yarn and a cotton cover for my sister's new lap top. I finished 1 skein of cotton last night, and hope that the other 2 I have on hand will be enough to finish it off.

[Tia]

Oooo...appy lover....you just gave me an idea when you mentioned laptop cover. I am using a regular desk for my computer and it doesn't have a keyboard drawer. I should make a cover for the keyboard!

 

Thanks!

Alright, starting new here. (haven't participated all year)

 

Last purchase: 6 skeins of simply soft for a baby blanket.

Used 5 skeins of it thus far.

 

So that makes me -2 as of last Saturday.

[Tia]

Happy Hooking!

I didn't get to post on Sat. so everything I did this weekend will go on this weeks score. I used 1 ball (+ 1) . Then my neighbor gave me 1 skein (- 2) in trade for 2 skeins (+ 4) because she needed different colors. What do I do with something called Claret ?

WTD Score: + 3

No Prob Tia--In fact you just made me think about how my printer needs a cover. The thing is always dusty. My sis needs the laptop cover to protect it in her school bag--so I am making one with kitchen cotton and a G hook. The tight stitches are hard on the hands, but she is really excited about it so I guess it is worth it.

YIKES, I'm starting my week in the negatives....just received a fabulous swap package loaded with

 

WTD = -30 YTD = +150

[basjordan]

I frogged a hat, rolling the yarn into a ball, so I'm counting it as a -1, since I gained a ball of yarn. I also used up two skeins, so that's a +4, netting me a +3 to add to my WTD of +2, so I have a WTD of +5. My husband offered to take me to Hancock Fabrics today, and I said no.

[hseger]

I sent out 4 skeins to a friend today so +8 more I'm trying to get back above -200 by Saturday.

My husband offered to take me to Hancock Fabrics today, and I said no.

OH NO

Someone call a Doctor. We have an ill crocheter

 

I busted 2 skeins yesterday making dishcloths, so that gives me a +4 for the week so far

You can do it!!!:cheer:cheer What a great goal!

[itzhunic]

I busted 2 more skeins finishing the afghan to be donated for my son's HS band silent auction.

+3 +4 = +7

Then a good friend of mine gave 5 skeins for a project she wants me to do.

+7 -10 = -3

That's not how things are supposed to happen when you want a positive score!!!

I must box up the yarn I was giving away, that MissRach wants, and send it off to her.

AHA!! -3 +44 = +41

HOW ABOUT THAT

[Tia]

What do I do with something called Claret ?

 

Ellie, I love Claret! I made a hat with some last year. And now I'm using the rest of it in my Granny Square scrapghan.

[bama_belle]

Tia, it shouldn't be a problem to get my score up, I've got so much I need to do right now!

 

If I only had the time!
