Yarn Report


When Judy L posted about her Loopy Legend yarn at Loopy Ewe, I had to rush over and order my own skein. I'm glad I did as I just saw it is gone. How could you not order special yarn that was make to honor your friend??? Will they make more? I don't know.  My husband shakes his head at my reasoning...I don't understand why he does that.

 It came yesterday and I love, love, love it! The kiddos saw the drawing but I had to be selfish and keep it for myself. I'll pin it to my bulletin because it makes me happy. I thought I was going to make a pair of socks with this yarn but after seeing it, I'm not going to. I think I'll make a scarf instead so I can show it off more.  Now to find the perfect one skein pattern! Oh Ravelry............
Wingspan would work, or maybe Noro Bias Lace Scarf. I don't know, I need to look more.

Since this is the only yarn that has come in and I haven't finished anything in the last two weeks, I'm changing my yarn report. My numbers don't look very impressive at all! Maybe I need to knit more. 

  • Used this week--0 skein
  • Used since mid August--4.5 skein
  • Added this week--1 skein
  • Added since mid August--2 skein
  • Total Net since mid August--2.5 skein
I'm linking up to Patchwork Times and OMG, look at Judy L's gorgeous yarns.......I'm kind of jealous right now.

Yarn Report




I decided to use this picture again just because I like it. I have it as my PC background picture and I am having to fight with myself not to go grab that pretty pink skein of the left and start another pair of socks. 

I used a little bit of yarn this week. Yeah.  I finished up the Christmas gift so that's a half skein gone out of the stash. And I added another skein onto the Rivel Cardigan this afternoon.  

We have a "major rainstorm" this weekend so I think there will be lots of knitting and TV time! I have a bunch of new shows recorded on my DVR so I'm not lacking anything to watch. 

  • Used this week--1.5 skein
  • Used since mid August--4.5 skein
  • Added this week--0 skein
  • Added since mid August--1 skein
  • Total Net since mid August--3.5 skein

Yarn Report


Every once in a while I get the urge to look at The Loopy Ewe and I put luscious sock yarns into my shopping cart. Before I press any payment buttons, I make myself go in and look at the pretty sock yarns I have waiting for me and I delete the order. Sorry Loopy Ewe, I don't mean to tease. So far this has worked twice this week.  Can I stay strong???

I didn't report last week as there were no changes in my numbers and I just didn't feel like posting much.

This week there is a little change as I work on a secret Christmas project.

  • Used this week--1 skein
  • Used since mid August--3 skein
  • Added this week--0 skein
