Middle - Studio June Yarn - Eight Bells - 400 yds - just because

Right - Desert Vista Dyeworks - Bluberry Hill (self striping) - 462 yds - might end up being used in Camp loopy as well. Still not decided.

Yarn Report 3/28/2014

I do have movement this week, but, I also ended up with some coming in. I can't win for losing that is for sure.

I finished my Cornelia socks. That was 350 out and 2 skeins.

I finished 3 dishcloths. That was 285 yards and 2 skeins.

I also received a package from the Loopy Ewe. My march giftables club. I love the yarn and the pattern. Although, the pattern calls for 2 skeins. So, I either have to make it smaller or I have to buy another skein.

Yarn of Richard Devrieze  Peppino in Agawa Canyon. So 225 yds or 1 skein in.

I also love, love, love the bag that it came with and the yarn feels awesome.

Yarn Report 3/21/2014

One of these days my numbers will be good. When? I have no idea but one can only hope. I am still working on my sock. Hopefully I will have that finished by next week. I then plan on making some dish cloths. Of course, I had to go buy some yarn to satisfy that desire.

Hopefully between the sock and some dish cloths I can make a little dent here.

Yarn Report 2/28/14

My last report was Feb 7. I didn't have much going on since then except for some incoming yarn. I have outgoing this week though.

I bought yarn for the Loopy Challenge and some superwash to make some Hats for Sailors.

Cascade 200 - In the Navy (blue) 220 yards - 2 skeins
                        Blaze (orange) 220 yards - 2 skeins

 Jitterbug - Zebra (black and white ) 400 yards - 1 skein (just because)

Lorna's Laces Sport - Cornelia 200 yards - 2 skeins

I also made it to Little Bear Peak so I received some goodies as well. I love the little Loopy Ewe notebook with sticky notes inside. Might have to make the mug mat as well. Of course the kiddos' and hubby already ate the tootsie rolls.

I also finished my nieces sweater.

Just don't look to closely.  Yarn -  Jojoland - Invervention

So for the wonderful numbers, well, if you like red. Hopefully my new routine will allow for some more moving of the numbers.

Yarn Report 2/7/2014

I was on a roll. I was being a good girl. I really was. Then I fell in hate with a yarn. Not a slow dislike, disdain, annoyance but a deep hate. It was slippery. It was static filled. It was chalk board screeching annoying. So, what is a girl to do? Well, find some yarn that she wants to use instead, order it, then decide she might as well finally order the other yarn she has been wanting as well.

We all know that one can never have enough yarn.

So I finished my Scaptastic Hat which is about 355 yards (it probably less but for my creative accounting purposes it will work.)

Dream Club - Feb - 1 skein/355yds

 

Kimono Cardigan - Wool of Andes Superwash in Merlot from Knitpicks 12skeins/1320yards.

Triangle Cardigan - Wool of Andes Bulky from Knitpiks 15skeins/2055 yards.

 

 

So the new totals are as follows...oh I have a lot of knitting I must get done.

Used this Week: 1 skeins
Used this Year: 2 skeins
Added this week: 28 skeins
Added this Year: 31 skeins
Net Used this Year : -29 skeins (It looks the same as our weather here)


Used this Week:  355 yards
Used this Year: 755 yards
Added this week: 3735 yards
Added this Year: 4765 yards

Reminder red is bad.

Yarn Report 4 - 2014

I have progress. Yay!!!. If only all my weeks will continue to look so good (or better).

I finished my Racing Raindrops Scarf.

I finished my twirly scarf but since the yarn was given to me and I finished in one day I am not counting it in or out.

Hopefully I can finish my hat this week. Yeah right but it is a lofty goal. I am off to cut 200+ FQ for some kits so I can get these 75 bolts outta the house and back to work. Then some nice knitting tonight.

For other progress reports head on over to Judy's. I really like seeing how her numbers show up. I think one of these days she will be in the black...well...maybe not.

Yarn Report 3 - 2014

I don't have much to report this week. Nothing in. Which is good. Nothing out. Which is bad. I may have to starting reporting less often or a lot of my posts will be very boring. I am hoping to get a finish this week so maybe by next week my numbers will look a lot better.

Yarn Report - Week 2, 2014

I fell off the wagon a little. Not like some people I have read about. But, in my defense I knew I was. I have a standing order for one more month of yarn from the Dream club. I also was influenced to buy this specific yarn but they were out of stock so I had to wait until it was available which happened to fall this year as opposed to last. Well that is my story and I am sticking to it.

Nothing finished - but I knew there wouldn't be.

Added -

 Dream Club for January - 2 skeins (mini) and 320 yards

 

Hand Maiden in Walnut - 1 skein  and 355 yards

 

I do have projects in mind for both of these. Getting to them is another thing. Hopefully I can have some progress next week but with the projects I have lined up that may not be possible.

OH and by the way I received my first order from Eat Sleep Knit and those stinking yarn lotto cards could be highly addictive. I'm just saying. 

Now to ponder do I want shiny cards to scratch or get my numbers back into the blue. Hmmmmm????

Yarn Report Week 1 2014

It's the first of the year and I am on a roll. Well, kind of. I finished a pair of socks. Don't mind the fact that I started these in April we will just forget that little tid bit of information.

I do have some movement in my first yarn report and I am running with it. The way I knit I will only be posting once a month and will be lucky to have any movement (positive that is) but that is ok. Some is better than none.

I decided to try and report yardage and skeins just to see what it looks like.
