Yay! Numbers to add to the “used” column! 1 skin of the Noro for the feathers and 1/2 skin from the second skein of background yarn Dreambird for a total of 1-1/2 skeins used. It sure comes in easier and quicker than it goes out!
Added — the 12 skeins of Freia for the Agata sweater.

Judy, when you consider that you’ll only be reporting less than half a year’s worth of work and purchases, i think your purchases are quite reasonable. Also you’re tracking your purchases now and tying them to designated projects rather than buying free-hand. that in itself will help you to control everything, and help you shop your yarn stash just like you do you fabric stash now. Just tell Vince that you’re stockpiling yarn against the time when he retires; buying now so you won’t have to buy later! (a fabulous money-saving plan, BTW)

Way to go Judy. I think you need to buy several more skeins though…then we’ll match. ;0) If only I had started reporting one week later, my numbers would look so much better! Oh well, it is what it is. I’ve definitely been more selective about buying now that we’re doing the report.
