Back to the Blanket....who's up for another Mn blanket?

[Marina]

As discussed by Bundle and myself off-board...who'd like to join us in creating a present for another Mner?
Ought to try and keep it a surprise for the recipient really so CAT me or Bundle if you would like more info.
All offers of help hugely appreciated, as before.

thanks Marina

I can't knit - am quite crafty though - what sort of thing d'you have in mind?

Have CAT-ed
Is is a sewing type blanket or a knitted type, cos actually I can't knit particularly effectively... bit will give it a go for MN!
Can sew though...

have cat'd you Marina.

Can you crochet FMF, she says through gritted teeth...
Last year we made a blanket for the child of a Mner and did so out of knitted cotton squares so it could be washed. For assembly purposes it all needed to be roughly the same elasticity/density, hence the all-knitted/crocheted approach.

I want to know who the MNer is but can't knit

I'm just nosey though

You're all lovely, you knitters!

All squares received last year made for a lovely blanket, whether from highly accomplished or novice knitters, so please don't worry about whether you are good enough

Sorry Marina, bit over-excited today...will CAT you!

what about some felt motifs Marina??? [smile}

I will CAT you then Giraffeski
Felt Motifs?

Oh, CAT me please. But I am going insane ATM, and will be leaving on the 14th, back on the 3rd.

Or rather, just email me, I expect more organised people will still have my email address from the last time?

Ah, I hoped you'd spot this o mighty fanjo!
I have at least one of your addies on file somewhere

I've just e mailed you Marina at the address I have from last time.

I still have some DK cotton from last time - same materials, I'm assuming?

I have some new techniques to show off, as have been mad for mosaic knitting lately.

And you too! Thanks Polly

Yes, same as before, like the sound of the new techniques NQC. Let me know if you need any shipping Polly.

Think I'll be OK marina, I'll go tomorrow to see what I can find in the shops and let you know if I need some. Thanks

marina, I was just trying to be inclusive for our crafty comrades

Anyone who uses the words die and cutter in close proximity is not trustworthy IMO bundle (sorry gals, only joking - but ability to wash it is v. imp here)

I know you're right....(am having v late lunch so you'll have to excuse my low sugar x)

Steady there giraffeski! CAT has been done, but I think you might have spotted that MNHQ is a bit busy today.... I am sure it will reach you soon!

surely not marina, anyone would think they had something more impt to do like, err, going on telly about a legal issue.
