2009 Stashbusting CAL

[jura2908]

congrats to everyone! Again this week has been filled with handquilting and reading so no crocheting/knitting. I just had to pick up that darned 'Twilight', read it right through and thoroughly addicted now***sigh***

 

i learned that i am better getting them on cd to listen to. this way i can still crochet...lol otherwise i would have been in real trouble with this series. i enjoyed it.

[ropergirl3]

you know Nadine I never have tried an audio, I just love books too much, I love to collect them! I could get more done though1

I had heard about the series a long while ago on Booktalks and tried to get it at my local library but they didn't have them and so I forgot about it. I am totally smitten with the book, it is just the amazing depth of the relationship.

[ropergirl3]

Darski that looks like it will be so pretty!

[alwayscrafting]

Absolutely gorgeous! I would have to change the neck though, I find I can't stand things around my throat anymore.

Good job everyone...

I am happy to have been crocheting so much more lately. I haven't completed anything all the way but I have been using up yarn finally!

I just found this thread. I would like to jump in, but not sure I understand the posting "rules"

 

Do I update my score by midnight every Saturday?

If I am jumping in now (a Sunday) does that mean I keep up with my score during the week and post my score on April 11th?

 

Can I edit the score in my signature at any time?

 

Am I making this too hard? lol

[dilyca2006]

oh. you know. I should have been +6 instead of -6!!!!!!!LOL Iput the wrong thing in front of my 6!!!!!!!!LOL

[CLLinda]

Great job everyone! Off to a good start this month.

 

And I was at a Zero, instead of a negative number!

[LEaD]

lol! I'm looking forward to this. I like competition (even if it's just with myself), and I hope this will keep me from buying too much yarn.

 

Good think I did my yarn shopping yesterday...BEFORE I found this thread.

How True! Now you have some good stash to work magic with. I'm glad you joined.

Hey I was able to finish a couple of my skeins, and with DH's doc appointment in the morning, I know I will have even more done. Boy this cut away cardi sure does work up fast. Congradualtion Ihapsaapsolady, and Karzy-Kitty on being this week's metalist.

 

Great work Ladies!

[fc1123]

well today I finished a skein of cotton yarn +2 for me for today

[econ-nerd]

Ooops! Completely forgot to post this weekend - Thanks for finding my score in my sig and using it!! Maybe I'll get some busting done this week! Congrats to the winners!

[CLLinda]

I started a baby layette set today and it's using small 50 gram skeins so I should get lots of scoring done this week.

 

Except for the fact that Easter is coming and I have a lot of prep for that. Just when I thought I would really score big, something happens.

 

And I need to make two meals for a family.

 

And get out the library schedules for the church.

 

The list keeps growing. Yikes.

You were right. I had the number totally wrong. I changed it. I apologize.

[dilyca2006]

Thank you!!!LOL I thought that I had posted it wrong!LOL Not difficult for me to do!!!!!

 

 

You were right. I had the number totally wrong. I changed it. I apologize.

[a_stitchintime]

Woot! woot!

 

DH is travelling for the next 3 days... lots of time for me! :devil

 

... hmmm... if I could only figure out what stash to bust!

 

Everyone is doing a great job!

[Jain]

Finished a skein on my granny square blanket today. +2 I keep forgetting to charge my camera battery so no pics of the green jacket yet but I'm working on it.

[LEaD]

Ok, I've got *another* question.

 

I received two skeins of yarn in the mail today. I ordered them BEFORE I joined the CAL. Do they count toward my weekly total?

 

(I have an awful feeling they do, which means a negative number for me )

[fc1123]

yeah it would count toward your weekly score. Speaking of scores I busted through 3skeins of cotton yarn so +6 for me

[LEaD]

nooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[fc1123]

I know just keep plugging away it will get better

[miss scarlet]

Some of my yarn comes in 2 pound skeins. Talk about taking a long time to finish that skein...... lol

If you don't have plans yet for those 2 pounders, you should check out the Lumberjack Flannelghan CAL in this forum... Crochetville member RoseRed was nice enuf to share the pattern with us... and from experience, I can tell you that you can bust some big stash quick AND it's really FUN!!! :devil

 

Whatever you decide to do... Welcome.... we are glad you're here!
