2012 DeStash-Along (*Closed*)

[bookstorebabe]

Antidigger, that's a lovely bag, and I loved your version of GreatA'Tuin as well!
ysmine, the crochet scarf is very pretty.
And the wee beards and mustaches make me giggle.

And welcome aboard, Beth!

Here are some pics. Three purple hats (the other I already put in the box).

Crocheted hearts. My first time doing them and they are messy. The bottom middle one was trying a different pattern but it looks more like a bean than a heart. Oh well!

My first pair of handknit socks  I love these sooo much, I'm not really a girly girl but pink and sparkly gets me every time 
I'm almost out of this yarn now, I think I have half a skein left *sigh* it has made a scarf, socks, toddler cardi and crochet flowers  it will be sadly missed

All that knitting looks great. You may have nearly used up all your ball of wool, but you now have some splendid stuff to show for it.

Here's the details of my turtle for the swap above if anyone wants more details. http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=403467.new#new

I do have rather fabulous sparkly socks so I'm happy to have de-stashed my pink/metallic yarn *lol* there are mistakes in my lace knitting but I'm not about perfection so they suit me  


I commented on your Great A'tuin in the bag swap but didn't mention the bags   they're great. I loved your stencilled tree and the umbrella pocket was an inspired addition  [/color]

Ok so I found this craftalong  awhile ago and I was reading got to page 11 and my husband asked what I was looking at and I told him. So with his encouragement and my desire to destash I am wondering if I can join the fun a little late.

I plan to keep reading and enjoying the lovelys everyone has posted so far.

Oh yes dear, jump on in! I did not join in until I think late August of my first year for this CAL.

grats on your first pair of socks, Kookaloo!

Kookaloo_Starr, those socks are cute! I love pink & sparkly! 

Well, I ordered 2 lots of yarn on Etsy yesterday... oops! I guess it's a Birthday present (Saturday is my bday) to myself. And most of the yarn will be used to make pet beds for the animal shelter, so it's for a good cause!

Also, as far as the challenges for this month, I did use up all of my red yarn on a pet bed. I'm at work now, but I'll try to take a pic in the next few days. Also, my yarn stash has just about been cut in half since the new year started. I need to start using up some of my other stash, though.

On a side note, does anyone know what to do with rug yarn?

Adding a FB link for this one as its an "in progress" swap. I really wanted to show it off though

Ooh, pretty.
