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.

End August is good littlefish, thanks

I'm onto my second but feeling potentially very inadequate about my first effort! Keep thinknig my plain efforts will provide contrast for the much more expert and innovative ones!

I'd love to help! Can you please CAT me the details?

Is there a photo of the first blanket?

Really dont think Ill be able to contribute, seems quite hard
Am not crafty at all, just wanted to help
Sorry Marina

Hi - I can knit and would love to contribute - can you CAT me? Or my e-mail address is lakinson.house at ntlworld dot com

Thanks

would love to help - if I can find my needles. nothing fancy mind you, haven't actually made anything in years. my email is [email protected]

No worries WB, please don't feel bad about it
Will mail those of you who have posted this weekend, thanks all, and have just replied to your CAT CorrieDale.
Yes please Sally - do you need CATing with the info, or would you prefer to CAT me?
Mousiemousie, I'll have to check that. I think it went in Member Profiles, but it was not I who photographed and uploaded. Will get back to you.
Number one commandment from last time was thou shalt not diss thine own knitting, robinpud! The variety of the squares made the blanket all the lovelier. You can buy terrifyingly uniform and neat handknits in designer baby boutiques, tsk tsk . This is an effort knitted by real folks for love!

Could I join in? Can knit, but nothing fancy

My email is personalnotbusiness at gmail dot com

Here's the photo of the last blanket

Marina, can you send me the instructions for knitting the squares again? I don't have your original email from the last blanket any more.

Thanks hun

Miaou, I owe you a mail anyway so will do.

Have CATed you Sally and mailed Swizzler and Gillian76 as requested.

Thanks esp. to Littlefish for some very effective canvassing

You're welcome Marina

i'm happy to help!

I'm using Rowan DK (I've lost the label so i can't tell you the exact kind). Size 4 needles. For stocking stitch, I'd do about 33 stitches and 45 rows for a 15cm square. If you're planning on doing something more fancy that might contract (like a rib or moss stitch) then you'll probably need to tweak this. HTH

My DK cotton is not Rowan, but my row and stitch count is roughly the same as everyone else's.

I haven't done mine yet

And today I saw Littlefish's DD's absolutely beautiful cardigan knitted by her own hands, and frankly I'm totally and utterly outclassed (I'm telling you, it's gorgeous)

Will try to get the stuff and knit something this weekend though and not be put off!

Mail received Marina.

Aiming to do at least one this weekend.

Will email you for details on where to send it

Mrs JC - What I don't think I told you was that the cardigan took about 4 months to knit, and nearly made me give up knitting altogether!!!

Get knitting woman! (lovely to see you today btw!)
