Been trying real hard to use up what I could since that order was heading my way. 3 skeins were depleted from my stash and today my order arrived. 6 one pounders! I did not realize how big those skeins were! Will be gone for the weekend, so will post my score now.

WTD -6

Finished off the doilyghan that killed my score..turns out it only took just less than 6 skeins of caron simply soft...so I am going to see if I can the take the 2 extra skeins back. Thats right take yarn back to the store...:eek, I am not sure if I am familiar with the concept of returning yarn:think...but I'm going to give it a shot. I am kind of wishing I had chosen a pattern that it had a little less lace, it doesn't lay as pretty as I'd like on the couch, and it isn't especially warm. I think she will love it though...I made the pillows to go with it.

Love the idea of making an afghan out of a doily pattern. You are a genious

Okay, I'm putting in my pitiful totals now, as I'm going to be busy all weekend addressing holiday cards and wrapping things...

 

In a word, I blew it! :eek I managed to reduce two skeins to balls (+2), but my order from Herrschners came in for the yarn to help rectify my mess of a crochet-in-the-round sweater (-20), so...

 

Stashbuster Total: WTD -18 YTD +57

I gave a bunch of my yarn to my niece. She's a poor college student who loves to craft and asked if I had any "Extra yarn". I told her to help herself to my bins and she did.

 

8 skeins of yarn walked out of my house.

 

so my score is pretty good this week.

 

WTD=+17 YTD=+18
