2009 Stashbusting CAL

[Krystal16]

Laura - yours went out yesterday, so you should have those points to deduct pretty soon!

[LegalWoman17]

Hooray !!! Now I can start counting . . . .

 

I just started a new afghan, and it is going very quickly. Hopefully I'm off to a good start for this year.

[darski]

I think I just need to buy more small skeins for a change...

 

Oh wait... buying is bad! Ok.. I think I have it now (or not )

[Jempast]

I have a question. Lets say your score for the week is -5 and then you use up two skeins so it would be +4 how can I figure up a score like that?

if you are five in the hole and then you get four plus marks that means the 4 would cancel out 4 of the 5 bads so you end up with a minus one.

I would like to play along. I've got a serious stash for various "projects" I want to work on. Several left over I wanted to finish for Christmas.

 

No more buying! Make Something Instead!

Off to see if I can set up my signature.

I've already used two skeins of yarn today!

[Graceylue]

I suppose this is one of those times when it sucks to be a slow crocheter.

[darski]

Don't anyone hold your breath but I just might finish a skein today

 

will get back to you on that one.

oops

 

I'm leading them astray now.

i've been a lurker around these boards for a few months, this project drew me out. I don't have a large stash, but considering my favorite yarn store is having a huge sale in 2 weeks, my stash will be growing again very shortly.

your going to have to count me in.

[dilyca2006]

I am going to go update my sig for the week so far. I used up one skein today!!!!

[darski]

I actually did it!!!

 

I finished that skein. I am taking that as an encouragement for 2009. I can finish them if I just keep working at 'em.

 

And I have a hat (and scarf) ahead for my hat CAL...

 

Go Team Darski

 

[hseger]

I'm off to a slow start this week but at least I don't see myself needing to buy yarn and I think I can stay away from the stores

[fc1123]

Ok I bought 2 skeins yesterday so that means -5 because I bought peaches and cream

[morna]

yay. i finished one skin and should be done with 2 more by tommarrow.

[CroJulee]

My score so far is... Drum roll please.... +2. We just won't talk about what it will be in a week or so.

Today is January 1, and I'm already in the hole!

Stashbusting week 1: -0, +2

Does that make you, like, the Darth Vader of yarn? Come to the yarn side, Luke!

 

Well, I thought it was handy to make a market bag from a 400 g skein of cotton, but, boy does that not help my score-- I have been working on it for an hour and I'm not halfway through! Well, since I am determined to bust my stash, I'd best get back to work.

[Marzee]

Been gone back east on vacation.

 

First went to Winchester, Virginia, to celebrate my mom's 80th. I was the surprise, since she didn't know I would be attending.

 

Then spent the rest of my time in Richmond with my sister's family. Flew back Christmas day, threading the needle successfully through Chicago. It was pretty nasty here, though. I missed my first ever white Christmas, sigh:sigh, since Portland got a record snowfall the week I was gone.

 

Starting the year with zeros, as I continue to work on a scarf with lace weight yarn. (See post 4727). Since it's a gift, I really have to concentrate on that.

 

Oh! and Happy New Year to each and everyone!

I'm lucky if I get two rows done in an hour. Stupid afghan. *pout*

[CroJulee]

I'm in huge trouble score wise.
