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.

Awesome.

Pistey! Oi! Get your arse in here!!

I hereby dub thee Chief Pesky End Sewer and High Ladyship of Cake Buying

And wine buying.

Maybe a gin or two....

Good lord... You must be desperate for the squares!

Shame I did the stripy one before I lost the needle....

Soupie that's just mean! i like your style

Ah Pistey's off doing summat social, I expect. I'm just volunteering her for allsorts in her absence and killing time before Strictly

I could probably do another stripy one...

Definitely not, Soupie unless you change colour every row

As it is from left overs, it could be in the middle of the rows too :o

I definitely do not condone you tackling this square

do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it

Pistey... Pistey...? Are yu OK with this...? Just shout if you're not...

[silence]

OK, I'll get to it. Stripy checks it is.

Squares glorious squares...

Morning

You wouldn't believe how many pesky ends gatecrashed the party...

Hey
Just checking in and wondering whether you received my parcel... It contained three squares - one entrelac and two lacey ones... Fingers crossed it made it...

I had to google entrelac
KnitterNotTwitter - Not here yet, hopefully tomorrow.....

Gorgeoise knitting in pinks, greens and purple arriving today from herbietea Thank you

Ooo lovely entrelac.

could've sworn it was a laxative

OK. Squares are finished, bear face embroidered (wonky but looked cute so I left it!). I still can't find the pesky end needles I'm afraid. So sorry... most of the ends are darned in as I did it as I went along.

If you could just remind of of the Loose Hookers Burlesque House address to send them to I will post them tomorrow.

Fingers crossed - they were sent last Thursday first class... Gulp... it's my first ever entrelac - wanted to try it for ages!!

Lovely KnitterNotTwitter, do not fear,
Gorgeoise entrelac is safely here...
So do not worry any more,
It has popped right through my door

I?m so creative these days I?m even writing poetry.
And now I know what entrelac is...

KnitterNotTwitter - Thank you

And gorgeoise stripes from CookieLove who must surely knit with the speed of a thousand gazelles! I will make sure your card gets to Chipmonkey. Thank you

whoop whoop - thanks Pistey :)

so sorry to hear we need other blanket. have pm piste with details.

Thank the lord - my squares are in the post.

All I can say is I'm sorry, very sorry.

And I don't mean about the lateness of said squares...

That really really made me laugh

And the funniest part is that DH, by nature a fairly gentle soul who likes a quiet life, was working from home this morning Are you guessing where I?m going with this?!

So there were three woolly parcels and one needed signing for, so DH had to come to the door. There he found our lovely postie tittering on quite a grand scale......

And then DH saw why....

A parcel was addressed to
The Loose Hooker School of Burlesque,
The Giant Bunny House,

Brilliant!! DH says he will never go to the door again when the postie comes
Marvellissimo! I love it!!
