Yarn chicken 😮‍💨

[BrooklynWonder123]

And I’m low key to lazy to frog it

Maybe you’ll finish it eventually

I had 5 or more scans of yarn stuck

The worst ive experienced was with my blanket. Was doing a border and almost ran out, but at the end I was left with quite a bit.

Omg

I absolutely hate when that happens

i was making a bag with my yarn doubled up and I ended up running out of yarn but that wasn’t even the worst part

The bag was way to small​ And I still haven’t gone to get new yarn nor have I frogged it

Same

Once I was 3 dc short. I tore out half of the row and used a hook 1 size smaller to make it work.

i lost yarn chicken bad :( when i was testing flarie the snuggler

[50shadesofpink]

I had a ball of yarn i was using which somehow got into a terrible mess that I couldn’t sort out, I asked my son to have a look at it for me. He came back with it 2 days later all neat and rolled. My son is really good at sorting yarn messes for me. thankfully. It would have been binned if it wasn’t for him

My dog thinks shes a cat. She pinches a ball of yarn when im not looking and unravels it all over my room

I tend to think I’ll need to play yarn chicken, so I’ll panic and buy more of the same skein. Then come to find out I didn’t even end up using all of the first one

I bought a skein of super chunky yarn once and didn’t realize how little yarn is in those skeins so I couldn’t finish my chunky gummy bear

[PeapodCreations]

Were you doing a tapestry?

[av123]

I was actually making a knit scarf haha

[marshmalli]

i play yarn chicken every time

mostly cause i’m just real bad at estimating and also not great at math.

At my school each month there is a group of students assigned to designing the prayer table that month. I decided to crochet baby Jesus. And the moment morning announcements started I ran out of yarn AND finished

That’s a good problem to have Somehow it’s the opposite for me, I always think I’ll have enough but then I don’t

I know!! It looks like there is so much in them but it’s actually barely anything

I’m currently playing a large game of yarn chicken rn. I have a huge bundle of yarn, but the thing I’m making is a large free hand dragon… And the stitch I’m using takes up a lot of yarn. I got the yarn at Joan’s, and I got it a while ago so if I got any more (online since Joan’s is no longer. And since it’s online, I wouldn’t be able to compare it to the one I have) it wouldn’t match.

[YarnPhoenix]

I didn’t know my ideas were so stressful. lol oops

[SaturnCrochet]

Litterally yesterday I was making a chubby dino out of a skein that was super small. I thought I would make it easily, but if I had like 20 cm (8 inch) less, I wouldn’t have had enough yarn for sewing… (this was my last skein of that dye lot)

Can someone explain why you are always crocheting twice as fast when playing yarn chicken?
