Stash Bash – Another Peurperium

By on February 7, 2013 in Knits and Crochet, Stash Bash

I’ve never met a crafter without a stash of some kind. This year my goal is to use up all the craft supplies I have spent money on that are taking up mental and physical space in my life. Rav page.

I wanted to share a little money saving tip since this pattern requires stitch markers, 5 of them.  I used to buy stitch markers and then they would all disappear on me mysteriously (not blaming anyone).  Now what I do is use little bits of bright colored yarn. It works just as good and its free.


There has been no computer time around here in the last week so I hope today to visit everyone who linked up last week and see what you were up to and then see what you linked up today, it’s my favorite part of hosting this Stash Bash.  I get so much inspiration from all of you.  Thank you!

So what have you been up to? I love to see what you come up with. I have added the Mr Linky to the bottom of this post for you to link up your Stash Bash projects.

Here’s what to do. There are no rules. 
Just use what you have and try to not buy new supplies, unless you need it to complete a project that you are making from stuff you already have in your stash.

Stash Bash

By on January 31, 2013 in Knits and Crochet, Stash Bash

I can’t really show you Livie’s slippers since she will receive them tonight at her birthday supper but I can show you a little glimpse of them.  I am finishing the monograms and then they will be wrapped.


On a side note,  I had hoped that many more people would join me every week and the fault lies on me for being so inconsistent but I am wondering how much longer I should host this stash bash and would love to hear from any of you on this.  It would help me greatly to make a decision either way.
