2008 Stashbusting CAL Game (winners posted #1835)

[TammyNC]

Another skein finished so I'm +6 for the week. With this granny afghan when I finished up one color the other colors were close to finishing up. Don't think I'll be adding another skein finished for a while.

[Lisaizme]

finished 2 skeins +4

 

WTD= - 65 YTD = 120

[lpgeorge123]

Bought three skeins of yarn today, but the good news is I have plans for them (though I'm not sure if I'll be able to use them all up - more scrap yarn!) Weekly: -6

[isserlie]

well for the first time in several weeks, I have used up more than one skein of yarn. I suppose that this is a function of having 4 projects going at one time, and doing so little on each in a day that the yarn never seems to disappear.

 

WTD +4

YTD = -5

Finished off a skein on a felted bag I'm working on. +8 for the week so far. Don't know that I'll finish off anymore but I'm happy to have something to report.

I think I have been on crochet vacation this week. I've barely made a stitch in the last couple of days so my score will stay the same.

[Lisaizme]

Finished a partial skein last night (insominia works to help bust stash huh?), +1.

 

I'm going to be out of pocket overnight.. so I'm posting my scores now incase I have another bad saturday.

 

In total, I've used enough balls or skeins this week to total 17... which makes my scores:

 

WTD= - 64 YTD = 121

 

If I get back in time to use up more yarn before the deadline, I'll edit this.. otherwise, that's my final answer.

[HappyOldCro]

Just received 12 skeins in the mail. -24

[Ellie 13]

I didn't get much done. My mom called and said "We're coming in this afternoon, BTW, do you have some yarn you can donate?" . I cleaned house and got some yarn together for my mom. 7 skeins and 9 balls/partials (+23) . I had a nice visit with my parents and dad took us out to dinner. I also gave my mom 2 baby afghans for Project Linus. Last night I used a small ball on my tortoise (+1). + 24 in one day!!

WTD Score: + 33

[Nght]

Sent 13 skeins and 3 cones to moomoo today... +32 more

Didn't buy any yet tho

[MrsCrochetPants]

-12 for me - I went to the second hand shop and bought some Dazzle-Aire Yarn for 70 cents a piece!!!

At that price for yarn, I think it's worth the -12.

[DreamsOfYarn]

I've used 3 more skeins on my ripple ghan. I do believe it is done.

+16

 

Being on bed rest for over a week sure has helped me in my stash busting. I can't get anywhere to buy any, so I am using what I have (and I have a lot of yarn in my stash).

Nght.. I am so curious.. what is your ebay seller name?

[angelfire]

I gave five skeins to my daughter and granddaughter for 8" squares for the "hook for a cure" group +10

[Cliffnote]

I just seen this thread, this seems like so much fun, I will join in! This will be a great way to get me motivated into using my scraps, I have many balls of yarn just waiting to be made into something!

Anyway I busted one little ball today +1 finally, everything I've been working on has been slow going on the skeins now.

Krystal, it's not my fault, she asked!

 

I list in spurts... there *should* be more there tomorrow, gotta get some pix taken

[CraftyJen]

I seem to be going the wrong direction now! lol

I did manage to finish 1 400gr skein this week.

 

So my total for the week is:

 

WTD = -14

YTD = +21

[TammyNC]

(+8 wtd) (+6 ytd)

 

for the week. We are getting ready to head out on the road back home so I may finish up a couple of skeins on the drive but we won't get back to a computer until tomorrow.

[TwistedStitchCrochet]

I am definitely going backwards not fowards.

 

-16 WTD -243 YTD

 

I told my husband that I am stockpiling for when I quit working. I only have about a month and half left of work. So hopefully I will be able to start using some of my stash up soon

[CLLinda]

Posting early because I am going Prom dress shopping with DD at Woodfield. I'll be dead tired when I get home.

 

 

It was a great week for me.

 

WTD=+10 YTD=+39

That's the highest score I have had so far.
