Very sadly another blanket is needed, for Chipmonkey....

[RatherBeOnThePiste]

We have heard the dreadfully sad news that Chipmonkey's baby daughter died unexpectedly this week. Condolence thread is here Chipmonkey has said tonight that she would love to receive a MN blanket.

Because Knotty is snowed under a mountain of wool, I am taking on the coordination for this, so if you are a donor or a crafter needing a match - please PM me and I will match you up. I know there is an amazing army of donor, knitter and crochet stars, and I am hoping that you will feel able to help with this blanket too.

So if you feel that you can help, please PM me with your offers: crafting, donating, need wool, don't need wool, and I will sort it all out, and when you are ready to post, PM me for the address.

I will have to get back on the deadline...

But thank you in advance.

Have been ultrasuperbusy at work today Pistey, twas horrid. I was in full blown PMT mode as well and had a bag on with everybody. So have not been to the PO yet. I felt that the man in the PO did not deserve one of my ranty rants.

Will package the grannies up tonight with their wee tartan trollies, there's eight of them, and send them first thing.

Had a look at the blankets, they are truly gorgeoise, well done to all of you hookers and donors and sewer upperers and deliverers.

Oh goodie, glad my square arrived!

My "square" is 6"x5". I am nearly there but it will be a smidge late getting to you. I'm very slow but trying hard! Hope to finish it tomorrow, fingers crossed.

Enjoy your important job tomorrow!

Pistey here's one of the grannies I'm posting tomorrow.

Wedding plans? Wedding plans? What wedding plans?

Can't link Nell as on phone, but look in 'chat' about half way down. Someone was asking for a witness at their wedding tomorrow ....

Arf at picture by the way!

Oh how intriguing TimeForCake, thanks for that - you've put me in the mood for some cake now mind ...

Bloody children have got in the way of my squares. I'd forgotten it was sodding half term this week or I would have put more effort in last week. Bah!

Sorry! It's never far from my thoughts either, especially while learning to crochet.

Have changed my name back, probably only temporarily, didn't think it right she have a hooker at the wedding!

Nelly, I'm looking forward to meeting your grannies with their tartan trolleys!!

And Bushymcbush....... humble squares are always totally gorgeoise. Always.

Found it! How lovely! Pistey I hope you all have a fabulastic time, hooker or no hooker.

And TimeForCake, I will be making some Lemon Drizzle Cake tomorrow and then sitting down with my crochet like the granny in the pic and scoffulating the lot. Yum!

I know what you mean soupy. I am posting three squares today without fail. I am going to make another two over the weekend and post on Monday. If that is too late I am really sorry and please can they be held over for any future blanket.

Am posting two squares today, if I can drag the children out, away from the Wii and the DS... sigh

pistey yes those three green squares are from me, stupid pre-AF brain forgot to say in the parcel who they were from! Sorry didnt post before but been a bit busy.

When does the big sewing together start?

As the children are going to their father's for the weekend, I am going to assume the Assemblers are slacking snowed under at the moment and hopefully post tomorrow.

Could I please have the address? PM'd on weds but no reply, its all good though, gave me a chance to do two more, so 8 squares coming your way!

Slimenoseros - I didn't get your PM, just checked too, it must be floating around in the ether somewhere I wasn't ignoring you. Honest!

Sorting you out now..... Hang on a mo......

Soupy

Us? Slacking?

Gorgeoise woolly wool squares have just arrived. My daughter answer the door, she is currently wearing a 'onesie' (all in one pyjama thing favoured by teens) designed to look like a rabbit, complete with tail and hood with ears which naturally she had on.... She is nearly 5ft10

God only knows what the postie thinks of us now

to Trumpton Beautiful and thank you for the offer - I will let you know, but I think there will be plenty. I seem to have a lot already, but obviously a blanket takes a lot too!

to Marymaryalittlecontrary More beautiful squares...

to bushymcbush - totally lovely

Pistey I beg you not to tell me where your DD's onesie came from. My DD is after one from H&M regardless of my telling her I thought it looked like a prison jumpsuit.

Off to the Post Office now...

Pistey - there's eight old grannies in the post for you - 1st class recorded delivery so put your best pole dancing shoes on to greet the postie!

Hope the wedding went well. :)

Rather fancy a bunny suit myself. If only to see DH's face.
