Well, went out yesterday and I only returned with 1 skein of yarn I'm going to be starting an afghan for my dad pretty soon, figured I'd just pick up one skein for now and will pick up more later. But all the same... -2 for me so far this week, better get going go work it off!

[hseger]

Well I had to give in to the sale of ILTY at HL so I came home with 8 skeins. All but 3 are for a planned project I just have to get around to making it so -16 but I was +2 so my WTD is -14 now.

[angelfire]

I was able to get a few rectangles done while being awake in the middle of the night. +1

another one this afternoon +1

WTD 10

[HappyOldCro]

didn't get to PC to post last night.

Worked up a bunch more pouches (12 made so far) from balls. used 5 last night.

[Melibean223]

My company has cut my hours, so I'm working between 16 to 20 hours a week. If I don't get back to 40/week, I'm going to look elsewhere. I've had a lot of time to crochet. I used a skein and 2 balls (+4) and finished an afghan made of 36 8 inch squares. I spent the last few days making plarn, and used it crocheting tote bags (+/- = 0). My score so far + 4. I'll try to add more before Sat.

I forgot to post my results last Saturday. Alas, I finished no projects and had to buy additional yarn for a WIP, so I am down four more points for a YTD of 24.

[JennyBunny]

I'm just stitching together the 3 color flannelghan today, and managed to finish a skein and roll two balls, so that's +4 so far. MAybe another one or two by the end of the week *cross fingers*

[Krystal16]

STILLLLLLL truckin' on my 3SUB. It's getting really big, though - so almost at the end of my points for it

[DreamsOfYarn]

Made some more progress on my 2SPR--used up 5 more partial skeins.

+19 for the week.

 

The positive is about to be negated since I received a box of yarn today. I'll count it up and post it later.

[130chris]

Finished DB's throw - LB Tasseled quick crochet throw -- I just love it - almost dont want to give it up. Rolled what was left of 2 skeins into balls so +2 and another finished project YAY :clap now to start a red scarf and hat for DS with caron SS which I had to buy cause she wanted red -- so -4 there... Im not doing very well busting my stash here... But Im having a great time staying motivated and keeping everyone happy

[2kute]

Just finished a skein. Have you noticed how long it takes to use up all that yarn LOL

[LegalWoman17]

Just used up 3 balls on my baby ripple. +3 for me!!

[DreamsOfYarn]

I just finished another skein on my 2 strand ghan.

 

I just counted up the yarn I received today in the mail---Thank You Carol

I got 8 skeins and 3 balls that I am guessing are 2 skeins worth (I believe she said she frogged 2 skeins worth)

 

So my +2 added to my +19 gave me +21.

But that is negated by the 10 skeins.....so.....

+21 -20 = +1

 

At least I'm still in the positive.

Now....back to my 2 strander ghan and my 2 strander scrap rug.

[hseger]

I used up a skein on my lapghan so +2.

[econ-nerd]

Another +4 for me I did up some more on my 2SUB last night. I may get into the positives this week

[DreamsOfYarn]

Another skein used up on my 2 strander.

I love working on 3 2 strander's. You sure can go through yarn fast that way (especially when one is a scrap cotton)

+3

[rlanto]

I have finally gotten some crocheting done. My roommate has requested a scrapghan to take with her to Boston. So, I'm seriously working on it. So, +8 for me right now.

[yarncat]

29-

3oz skein:hat,turtle body,flower,rnd3 of gs,1 row of scarf-mulberry

2.5oz skein-scarf-springfield

1/2skein-MAM lap blanket strip-Xmas ombre

+5

[laughlovehook]

I used 4 skeins on my ripple blanket. Close to using up a few more but I'll wait to claim those. +8

[Addey]

I haven't touched a hook in days... Finally figured out what to do with the border for my baby flannelghan. I'll attempt to finish that up tonight, so maybe I'll finally kill of another half skein or so...

[laughlovehook]

Finished another skein +2

[MadCityCrochet]

I knew I was going to use up those skeins that I bought last week rather fast, but I am a little surprised just HOW fast. I bought 8 skeins and as of this morning I have already used 6 of them! I am almost done with this project and have to use a little bit more of one of the skeins to finish the assembly, but then I am done. I will use the last 1.75 skeins to make another helmet liner to ship off next week. Glad I am getting those points back quickly!

 

So far this week: +12

[redpuppydog]

-8 for me.

I had to get some black yarn for a hat, and ended up buying 3 other skeins, because they was pretty......

 

 

 

sigh.......................... back to work trying to bust the ever-growing stash.

[HappyOldCro]

Used 2 balls on making 8" squares for 2 people. started a triangle shawl with my leftover boucle, one strand and since I have around 10 oz of it I don't see me finishing too soon.

+2 for last night.
