Who is up for another meet up?

Share ideas for the little hugs project and eat cake

The tramway was perfect last time and I now know where it is

Thank you all for letting me join in today. I had a fab time. Can I sneak onto your Facebook page? Smile
And thank you very much hairy for the lift.

prettybird · 24/09/2012 17:17

Thanks for the company everyone :)

Dh made some rude comment about how long I'd been - but ds was still alive just Wink

Maybe next time I'll attempt crochet...... need to come with another excuse

HP - your dd1 was doing very well with her knitting.

VintageEbonyGold - keep practicing your purl - you were definitely getting it! :)

VintageEbonyGold · 24/09/2012 17:19

What fb page

Thanks from me too, luffly dc's everyone Thanks

prettybird · 24/09/2012 17:41

Liz - there isn't a fb page for the blanketeers, just the one currently for a potential evening Glasgow meet-up - but I think you are already on that.

A few of us have got to "know" each other and have since linked up on fb. Maybe we should set up a Scottish Blanketeers fb group! :)

prettybird · 24/09/2012 17:43

Should have said that "there isn't a fb page for the Scottish blanketeers that I am aware of " - not to say that there isn't one and I am just clueless

SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius · 24/09/2012 17:43

It was a lovely day, and I had a great time. I hope we can do it again soon.

HairyPotter · 24/09/2012 18:12

Great day today, fab company and cake, what more could you ask for? Liz and Vintage, it was lovely to meet you both. Thanks so much for the crochet lesson Vintage, I'm not sure I'll manage without you though Confused

I'm not fb friends with any mumsnetters

so a Scottish woolly huggers one would be fab. Who wants to set it up? [smiles hopefully]

lizmarshmallow · 24/09/2012 18:19

Oh I think it picked up the wrong end of the stick when I skim read through this thread this morning. I am already on the night out group. I don't think I can set it up on my phone, don't think I'll make it to the laptop tonight after my early start.

VintageEbonyGold · 24/09/2012 18:35

Hairy, you can do it, just remember to go through the holes between each set of 3trc, double chain the corners.

It was a lovely day and I got a job interview when I was flinging my bag contents around still not home though.

I could set up a Scottish Blanketter fb group but will have to be tomorrow evening no life and no friends Grin

GlaikitFizzog · 24/09/2012 18:37

I'm on the fb page! Give me 10 minutes!

HP - you send me a friend request. I'll be easier to "find" than you. My name should still be on your phone since we "bumped".

prettybird · 24/09/2012 18:44

That should read, "You can send me...." Blush

GlaikitFizzog · 24/09/2012 18:52

Ive set up the page. Pm me and I'll add anyone who wants added :o

SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius · 24/09/2012 19:07

Can you add me please, Glaikit.

SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius · 25/09/2012 13:16

How would people feel about making this a monthly thing? Maybe alternating between the Tramway and the Burrell?

HairyPotter · 25/09/2012 14:06

I would love that! The only problem may be that the only day that suits everyone (afaik) is Monday and I know you have other knitters to tend to that day. Grin

SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius · 25/09/2012 14:24

I can miss one Monday a month - for the pleasure of all your company!

VintageEbonyGold · 25/09/2012 18:20

Possibly, depending on work hours have just got a load of icelandic wool Blush

SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius · 25/09/2012 20:10

I've just ordered three bals of the stylecraft yarn, for the mini-hugs project - and I've finished the pink triangular scarf I was knitting on Monday, so I need a new project.

SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius · 25/09/2012 22:20

Balls. Blush

prettybird · 25/09/2012 22:50

That's great Ebony - what are you going to make with it?

Am happy to alternate Tramway and the Burrell - but isn't the Tramway shut on Mondays?

prettybird · 25/09/2012 22:55

Am going to have to start on a Mini WoollyHug 'cos I'm 2/3 of the way up the sleeve of my wee Icelandic jumper and I need another ball of white Icelandic wool , but dh has decanted the spare bedroom 'cos he's putting new carpet down and god knows where my stash of Icelandic wool is Hmm

SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius · 25/09/2012 23:11

He has moved your yarn?. Leave the barsteward!

VintageEbonyGold · 25/09/2012 23:35

I've got 4 balls of white shade 11 the others are pink shades

I'm making a chunky, crochet floor blanket for the cat who doesn't move things I can't knit, it just went, knit one, hole one.

prettybird · 25/09/2012 23:45

Definitely need regular meet-ups! We'll get you knitting Smile and maybe I'll give crocheting a go Wink
