4 and a Half Skeins Finished!

Remember when I said I had probably put way more yarn in my stash-dash basket than I could reasonably expect to knit?  So far I've finished two scarves and used up 4 1/2 balls from my basket.  The newest scarf:

 and the next one already on the needles:

and the first ball of the gift vest.

the entire thing is not part of my basket (thank heavens--cable needle, size 5 needles)--just this one ball.

Shall we just stop pretending that I'm not trying to finish the entire basket by September 1, no matter how idiotic this might be?
