2008 Stashbusting CAL Game (winners posted #1835)

[CyM]

I used up a ball today making a couple rectangles, I am trying very hard to get out of the negatives YTD before Saturday.

WTD 12

Me too, except I would just like to have one week this year in the positives. I realized after I posted that it is very possible! We shall see...

I got a skein in the mail from a friend here, she rescued me by giving me the yarn I needed to finish off my hooded scarf! -2

Hey Krystal ~ What pattern do you have for a hooded scarf? There is one I have. But some who have already made this say it turns out too big. TIA

[Krystal16]

http://pamapaloza.blogspot.com/2006/10/hooded-scarf.html This is the one I am doing. It is a little "deep" in the hood I think, I would make the starting chain shorter. I am not 1005 sure, though as it's not done!

[LegalWoman17]

+3, used up three small balls on a hat during my lunch hour.

[walker1021]

Krystal...thanks for the pattern link. I am going to have to set that up in my que on Raverly.

Megan...Still debating on ordering that yarn. But seeing that you have outdone me on that today, I may have to go click that "BUY ME" button tomorrow.

I just couldn't resist.. I went to the dollar store and got 5 skeins of RHBaby yarn 5oz skeins and 2 skeins of bulky navy for $1 each so that is a -14 for today but I'll be using it up on baby blankets and purses..

[hseger]

I finally could roll a skein into a ball that I've been working on for what seems like forever. +1 more point for me

[HappyOldCro]

still not all that well, used 2 balls in an attempt at a toy...+2

[DreamsOfYarn]

I just used another skein making a scarf. That puts me at +9 for the week so far. I have 2 more scarves in the works (just found them tucked away in a bag ) so my numbers should be even better later this week

[Melibean223]

ugh the week is already half over and I'm just not finishing a ball on the scarf I made for my friends son. I started some fingerless glvoes and they are going quick so we'll see what happens 1 skein is suppose to make a pair so perhaps there will be more points in my future this week.

 

+1 so far

[Krystal16]

Rolled a skein of burgundy into a ball on my firefighter ghan j- plus 1!

[Warrior Maiden]

Finished another ball on the afghan I'm doing for my SS....another +1 for me! I'm slowly inching out of the hole I put myself in Sunday....

[Nght]

2 skeins used up on my rectangle granny, gonna be baby size, so a few more rounds and it's done. +4

 

Here's the other RR I made last week...

measures about 75" across (which means that the RW&B RR I made is at least 100"!)

 

 

[jneuman88]

Made some fingerless gloves with some Simply Soft, then used the rest on WUA rectangles, using the last of it last night (+2). Now onto my last skein of Simply Soft ... these rectangles are so fun!

[angelfire]

Hubby is leaving for a hockey tourney on Friday , therefore I know I will have some time beforfe Saturday eveining and I will work on some today while I do laundry +4 finished an other ball while doing laundry + 1 more

Well... I spent a few hours last night in front of the TV working on my baby's flannelghan. Unfortunately, even though it's a 2-strander and only 2 colors, I'm working from 4 skeins. None of them are quite half used up though. Hopefully tonight or tomorrow I'll be able to get the third strip done and be able to roll up a few of the skeins. So, I'm still at a big, fat 0 for the week. That's OK, because I know I'll be buying yarn soon for a 'ghan for my mom.... hopefully to finish for her birthday in March. (That and of course I've got to make more baby things!)

[DreamsOfYarn]

I finished another scarf in the wee hours of the morning.

+11
