#YarnChicken victory
That's what was left from a 600 m / 100 g ball of yarn. 2.4 m or 0.4 g.
My latest #knitting is finished, all ends woven in. It now just waits for its turn in the washing machine.
Another #WIP! The heart pattern isn't as clear as I'd like, but it'll work. I'm going to be playing #YarnChicken on this one.

Here's my own version of #yarnchicken - still have the toe and that's what's left from the first yarn ball.
Second picture id almost finished socks - waiting for the toes to be sewed.

Dropped into #bendigowoollenmills last week and found this gorgeous #variegated #purple 100% #australian #merino #wool #8ply #yarn. Being in the #bargain section, the three balls they had were it, and so not enough to make a #handknit #jumper (#sweater ) or #cardigan without playing #yarnchicken, so fell back to my default of #knitting #socks. Being so sidt, thick and #lush, they'll be perfect for my friend, Laura, who finds the bitter #chill of #winter in #Victoria almost unbearable.
They're knitting up very quickly on my #KnitPro #Zing #Interchangeables using #magicloop #2atatime (to avoid SSS - #SecondSockSyndrome) and the #fishlipskiss sock #pattern.
I suspect these will be the first of many I'll be knitting.

Uh... while searching for worsted weight yarn in the stash, I found this project that I bound off, wove in the ends . but never blocked or wore. CABLES AND BOBBLES! I sweated every one of those stitches and was in a heated game of Yarn Chicken right to the end... and just.. forgot about it?
WTF BRAIN.

I actually lost at yarn chicken. Only managed to finish by stopping doing my stretchy bind off for a spell AND spit-splicing the cast on tail to give me a few more inches π° #YarnChicken
It's the one year anniversary of my most epic yarn chicken victory, ever!
I'm making myself a colourful hooded #crochet scarf with #pockets by #WickedlyHandmade out of yarn friends have given me over the last year. I was feeling so sick and crummy that it's basically going to be a wearable hug from my people. I've 6 more rows to do before I add the hood and pockets. Am entering #YarnChicken territory. #Craftadon #HappyHooker

The end is in sight!
Unfortunately, the end of the yarn is also in sight.

#YarnChicken update:
This is my third attempt at the final round of this pompom. If I run out of yarn yet again, I am giving up and just yanking the row and turning it into gloves or something. But this thing looks so good with the extra round.
Also, note to self: pin this thing on BEFORE you cut the yarn, just to make sure it's not ridiculously heavy.
*Stares at her hat-in-progress*
*Stares at the end of the yarn tail literally halfway through the last round*
*Sighs and gets another ball out*
Also, unrelated to the game: I am about to start skein *four* on this hat. Hopefully this is enough, because I really don't want to have to frog this and find a new pattern. #Crochet #YarnChicken
I made it! #YarnChicken Thank goodness for toe-up socks and only risking frogging a bit of cuff.
Heavyweight socks eat so much yarn! Fortunately, these ones are made with miniskeins, so it was easier to get a full-height sock. I have very long feet, so all my other thick socks are kind of short, but these are going to be fantastic for keeping my feet warm all winter! π

Knitting on his sock and N asks if it's too early to fix dinner.
Kind Sir, it is not.
More knitting. I will let you know if he needs contrast yarn for the toes again #YarnChicken #knitting #SockKnitting
