Following on from the blanket for Magic8 which is under construction, we'd like to offer one to Whatevertheweather who has recently lost her baby daughter.

I know there is already an army of knitters and crocheters and donors out there; would anyone be able to join us?

happy birthday tinywee and knotty...i just want to make people aware that the colours ive got arent the same as the ones from magics blanket as they are from the new seaon. The Other ones were from last summer where as these ones ordered are from this winter, they are so new they arent even on the debbie bliss website yet as i had hoped to link the shade card so people can get an idea of the colour they are ordering The cream is also a dark cream, whereas the one from magics is white-cream. I hope that makes sense and no one is disappointed Confused

I will await my one or two balls as I couldn't decide! Knotty has told the donor to decide! Blush

Happy birthday knotty xxx

Thanks ladies for the birthday wishes x

TinyWeeTeethGreatBigBite · 02/09/2011 20:06

Ok knotty, hit me with it ...

RatherBeOnThePiste · 02/09/2011 20:07

Someone will receive wool from me tomorrow. Fingers crossed. I posted it first class this afternoon.

I am learning to knit, it's going OK but ver ver slow, and this is wool I ordered for me rather ambitiously. Anyway it came first thing and I'm sending it to you instead my lovely Crafty type, then you can get on, and I have ordered more for me. I'm not going to need it for a while!

It is a ball of light cream and one which is a sort of pale lilac pink, I really hope you like it, and I am confident you will make something totally gorgeous. (((Hugs for my lovely knitter)))

And Happy Birthday to our twins!
