MN Blanket Making Thread continued.......

[RatherBeOnThePiste]

There is irony in me starting this second thread for you lovely Blanket Makers, as I'm the least crafty person, but I'm doing it to help Pidj

It's been a craft free day for me I'm afraid.

That Knooty was a bit snooty, don't you think?

A craft free day, eh Pistey. How unusual

Can't be doing with snooty, meself

Yes, Knotty, sadly a craft free day for me, but this is the latest project I'm working on when I get a chance..... What do you think?

"Winston has a girlfriend/sister!"

Hope pic has uploaded ok .

Try again .

Think I'm going to do a stripey one next - and knit with 4mm needles because I hate knitting with small needles to make it bigger!

One more time!!

Yay Knitting! Can't wait to meet Winston and Clementine!

Blanket at standstill due to purpletwatface leaving it behind this morning

Is she really called Clementine?! Clementine was on my list for DD2 but she was a boy!

They're so cuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuute

She's called Winnie, but can easily be changed . Or next one could be Clementine !

Glad you like them piste, I think purple is planning to give them some clothes to spare their blushes .

How cute are those two?

Fantastic job, Knitting. [KnittedStar]

She can have Clementine as her middle name

You are so bloody clever

Those two being the teds, obv.

Ahem... I'm reasonably cute I like to think....

Clementine was Winston Churchill's wife

known as Clemmie: lovely name.

Pistey, you're not cute!

You're gorgeous, dahling

Blimey, I'm trying to do some work but my butterfly Brian is struggling.

Coming right back at you Knotty < mwah >
Poor Brian, think he needs a holiday... This is for him but you'd better tag along or it may get a bit messy...

purplepidjin - Always take pride in geekiness

< wonders if its too late to have baby Clemmie >

Unfortunately it would sound ridiculous with DP's surname

I can make a knitted baby clemmie if you want?

Ok, Randolph completed ! I made him a bit funky and multi-coloured although my cheeky dh thinks he looks like he's got a plaster cast on!

I loved knitting with the bigger needles and the petrol blue, so think I'll make the next one just in that. Any idea when the raffle will be? Just want to know how long I've got!

hey, Knitting, you'll soon have your own army . They are fabulous! Randolph is very cool.

I think we may leave the raffle for the end of the summer. It's going to take a bit of effort to get it all sorted and we thought that it woyld be better to do once the schools are back. Summer hols tend to be quieter on here so less traffic to 'buy' tickets.

I'm making some little chickens

Thank you .

Good to know I've got bags of time - have an elephant to finish for a friend's baby (due any day!) and a tea cosy for another friend about to emigrate so I may break off from teddies and crack on with some other projects .

Look forward to seeing the chickens .

Must. Get. On. With. It.

Work tomorrow bleurgh so will try and do some edging.

Lord Randolph Churchill is mighty fine, just hope the syphilis isn't contagious
