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

That's a lovely idea. There's a pattern for a scarf linked to the cable site- do you want the link?

Oh, yes please!

I'm thinking of working it into a jackety type thingie

Can I just say that, for all her protestaions, Twig knitted a blooming tree in multicolours and put the rest of us to shame

I will have to get dh to take a pic and put it up!

Can Tamum put up the pic she has taken, as this will probably be faster!

DNA cable scarf .

When and if mb says she doesn't mind, miss.

Dr Thomas Montville, obviously

Right, I have uploaded it to Flickr, it's here . I should say that in terms of mb and Mr mb snuggling up under it it's going to be quite a tight fit unless they are both very much smaller than I imagined.

I'm glad you liked it- you'll be able to pick out my square- it's the crap one Tamum did a wonderful job of edging and sewing it all together.

You're so right about knitting meaning you cut back on the drinking MB.

Sorry you had a crap day though xxxx

What you can't see is all the wonderful detail in the stitches used. It really is quite wonderful and none of the pannels is crap JJ!

Oh, I wish I'd know about this - I could have done a fantastic square with loads of dropped stitches and uneven rows

Pruni, you looove him

It is rather fab, isn't it. Feel free to admire my carpet too, all of you.

wow, that's great. Love the yellow heart - who did that?

Message withdrawn

Oh crumbs Mercy, I can't remember. Not all the squares came with names attached- I have a feeling it was Bundle's, but I don't want to offend anyone.

I have a sofa that matches your rug perfectly!

The blankie is gorgeous!

Who did the RAF circle?

And another male knitter (and Friend of Kaffe's ) here
Jimjams and MB, Tamum has your addresses I think. Mercy, can you CAT me or Tamum to be added to the MotherList?

The RAF doily is mine I'm afraid . To get the colours right I used a slightly thinner cotton yarn than usual (Jaeger Aqua Cotton for wool pervs), and forgot to downsize needles, so it is rather, ahem, lacy.
I sent it to Tamum without sewing the ends in too - double
Janh, do you knit, she says hopefully?

Oh the blanket is just lovely

You clever people!

Do count me in for the next one
