Yarn Report Week 9 2014

My yarn purchase is the fault of The Loopy Ewe starting the Spring Challenge.  I purchased Lorna Laces' Solemate to knit a pair of socks for the challenge.
 
 
Then I decided that the next sweater I want to knit is Rolling Rock by Thea Coleman so I bought 10 skeins for Cascade 220 Sport  - the color is Lake Chelan Heather

 
I have one completion for the week.  My Pooling Yarn Scarf I wove using  Loopy Legends in Debbie's Autumn Joy - sorry Judy I would have used your colorway but it was sold out when I made my purchase.  I still need to twist the fringe and wet finish but I calling it done so my numbers don't look so bad.

Used since 1/1/14: 7 skeins
Added this week:  11 skeins

Yarn Report - Week 4 2014



I gave in this week and placed an order from Knit Picks.  But in my defense I needed to order the yarn to get the free ship.  I was wanting to get crochet hooks that would attach to my interchangeable needle cables and the crochet hooks were discontinued which they only had 2 sizes left and that is way I purchased yarn. 


But I did finish my Greyhaven Cowl so I at least was able to add something to the used column.

Yarn Report - Week 1 2014

Decide to participate in the weekly yarn report that JudyL hosts at Patchwork Times.  Even thou my yarn stash is not that extensive I still need to keep it under control unlike what I have done with fabric.
 
This week I finished weaving a Houndstooth Scarf out of Knit Picks Wool of the Andes in Sport.
One nice thing (or bad thing) about weaving is you can use up a skein of yarn very quickly.
