So many thaks to Tamum and all the MN kntters

[Blandmum]

I can't begin to tell you how happy i was when the parcell arrived this morning. It was so stonishingly kind of you all to have helped to knit me a blanket. As luck would have it, it arrived when I had hit a very low patch, so if gave me the lift that I needed.

You are all so kind and I cannot think you enought, in particular those people who even learned to knit to take part.

The money for Macmillan was also wonderful, and we will pass it on to Lynn our Macmillan nurse when we see her later this week.

I'm speachless, i simply don't know what to say, and 'thank you' seem so trivial and doesn't even begin to cover what I am feeling ATM

with much love

XXX glad it reached you so fast MB, and at such a timely moment .
At the risk of sounding soppy, please forgive me, but every stitch was our way of saying how much we think about you all, and love you on here XXX

bump for more people to read

And even those of us who are unteachable in the knitting stakes (ie me) are thinking of you too, mb.

Another unteachable knitter who is thinking of you, MB.
Glad the lovely blanket has lifted your spirits a little.

Just think of it as being wrapped up in a great big mumsnet hug

I wish I could say I'd knitted some of it but I didn't even know it was happening!

Glad someone is on the ball though and pleased that it gave you a boost there not a bad old lot on here eh?

Sending much love to you and your family mb.

I didn't know about this either!

I am glad it has lifted your spirits. It is always nice to know you are being though of, and it will be a lovely thing to keep. You'll have to post a photo of the great big MN hug

Oh, I'm so pleased you liked it mb I can't do better than Marina's post- she's absolutely right. Lots of love and good vibes in every stitch xxx

and I would love you to give me tha pattern for the DNA molecule!

I didn't know it was happening, but if I had, I would have been another learned to knitter - you are in my thoughts so much

Aah, that's lovely, I didn't take part but I think about you a lot too.

Your wish is my command I'd love to be able to take the credit but sadly I can't. It's good though, isn't it?

I didn't know - but wish I had - I've just finished my first ever scarf ...

But I'm glad to hear of such a lovely gesture and want you to know you and your dh are often in my thoughts x

Apologies to anyone who feels left out by the way- we just had to use an existing email list of past contributors because otherwise it wouldn't have been a surprise, what with martianbishop being an ace knitter herself

I have a sodding package sitting on my radiator

feckfeckfeck

feckfeckfeck

PLEASE make more blankets and I promise I will do better

Sorry fillyjonk

god no its entirely my fault

am very sorry

aaargh

I am not usually this crap

any pics?

I have a photo I took before sending, but I wouldn't want to post it unless mb said it was OK.

Blimey, that sounded sanctimonious, sorry.

oh how wonderful! I didn't know about this, but am delighted to hear about it

oh I'm so pleased you liked it .. and so pleased that it reached you when you needed to be reminded how much you're respected, and indeed loved on here.

As one of those who learned to knit for it may I just say that I thought of you with every stitch, every dropped stitch, every attempt to pick up stitches and yes indeedy with every single swear-word I uttered

So glad you liked it MB.
