Stashalong--Week 10 of 13
Stashalong--the joyous journey continues. If you are interested in continuing or spreading the madness, I'll have a post up at the Stashalong's new home in the next couple of days. You are, of course, welcome to join up anytime(and in the new format you only have to do a month at a time--which I plan on utilizing when I have a project I really want to get done--but I'll be taking at least a month off first).
Two more have sailed off into the yarn buying sunset--so you know what that means, right? Another moment of silence---

Sorry for the late post this week. Little Rage has been puking since Thursday(the doctor said it's a virus and he'll be fine) and that has taken up a lot of my time causing me to run late with Stashalong patrol. This morning I HAD to go and get Goblet of Fire, but I got back to finish this up before lunch and I'm pretty happy about that :) Have a great week, ladies, and hang in there--we're in the homestretch!!

Hope Little Rage is feeling better and that Mom is getting some much needed rest!
Love your sweetheart hat!! It's really beautiful.
I'm definitely looking forward to getting my own Goblet of Fire DVD. Ooooh.
I love the idea of a month at a time Stashalong. Apparently three was a bit much for me. Maybe I could swing every other month or something... Congrats to everyone that has stuck it out. Almost there!
I wish I had enough discipline to join the stash-along. :P Sure would free up some closet space...
I hope Little Rage starts feeling better soon. A virus like that has been going around here like crazy. I hope it doesn't get passed on to the rest of the family!
(I can't wait to see the GOF again. A friend of mine bought it yesterday and we are planning a viewing.)

I'm with Mod Girl. I've managed to acquire a lot of patterns lately. This Stashalong has also helped me finish off some lingering WIPs.
I'm going on vacation the first week of April & will have to skip that month of StashAlong. You know, new cities with yarn stores to explore ;-)
