Blanket Number 6, please help [sad]

[purplepidjin]

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?

Soup your poor Ds sounds nasty. sorry about crapola typing Just come out of hopspital after having a anaphlyactic shock yesterday.
I can't wait till my woool arrives the ds's go back to school tommorow.

He's actually come off lightly I think. There was a possible hairline fracture just above his ankle bone, completely non displaced and so almost not there that they aren't sure it actually is there. Given the rough nature of the game, that's a result! I rather think he will be disappointed if he ends up with no fracture after this.

But I wasn't able to crochet whilst waiting for XRays and plastering as the pattern is on my iPad which was being fully utilised as an electronic baby sitter.

Hope you're fully recovered !

Blimey, Nessa! Hope you're feeling better. Do you know what caused the reaction?

Soupy, sounds like your DS may have got away with it. Hope so for your sake as well as his, or he'll be one frustrated boy after the novelty's worn off.

Soupy, I am alot better just feellike i've been hit by a bus. and the steroids are making me sleepy and uncoordinated. Glad your ds is ok!

Knotty it was a rubber dogs toy am alergic to latex.

Right Nessa, you need to get rid of the dogs.

(A tad biased here as I'm allergic to them)

Knotty, we don't have dogs it's my dbro's! it was my own fault tho.

No worries HotSummerNights, I will let you know on here when it arrives!

If he loved you....

I've just ordered wool and needles, Can someone PM me the address the squares need to be sent ? Also is there a time limit? I am a beginner so I might not be as quick as some.

DarkSide, I'll PM you. Last posting date is Sat 17th Sept.

Lovely, I reckon I can get them done by then :D

But why were you chewing a rubber dog toy?

HELP!

Right I am sitting in front of laptop, credit card at the ready.

Can someone confirm that I need to order

Debbie Bliss cashmerino DK.

And any help with shades would be most helpful ...

angel and songbird your squares are fabulous!

My wool should be on it's way to my lovely knitter today. I really wish I was a better knitter myself so I could join in more.

I've copied this from earlier in the thread..

Debbie Bliss Cashmerino DK (NOT the baby cashmerino)

or Rowan Cashsoft DK.

although TinyWee - you've probs fallen asleep onto the keyboard by now [zzzzzzzzzzzzzz]

Thanks Rather, I'm sure my wooly match said pink but I couldn't open my PMS

PMS?

TinyWee, my twin, how could I possibly ban you?

Now, did you order the wool?

Yes, at last I did Knotty!

I have just PM'ed you, (tis working now on laptop!)

Ah PMS=PM's, the feeling of rage that both invoke is very similar!

Excellent. Mission accomplished.

Ok, I've received wool (thank you to RatherBeOnThePute) and have started. Have received your DM with the address so as soon as I've finished I'll pop them in the post.

CoffeeandChocolateplease - did the wool that you received come from Lydia? Just wondering if I might be your donor? If not, I ordered a cream and lilac ball to go to the West Country last week. Hope it's arrived ok :)

I picked up my wool from the post office.
It's gorgeous stuff! It will make a gorgeously tactile blanket.

Rather glad I ordered extra for me! :)

Just got to have a shower and hope dd has a really big nap so I can get knitting!
