OK, well I have done one and a quarter inch. Go me..

However

The problem I have is that I'm not sure of the colour combi I've chosen and think I will have to start again.

So a very slow start, somewhat exacerbated by a re start Blush

RatherBeOnThePiste · 21/03/2012 19:01

So Cakey - you are doing well Grin

Oh, God, do they have to be neat at the back?, My care bear is NOT neat at the back!

TimeForCake · 21/03/2012 19:07

That sounds a bit tricky. But if you will show off with more than one colour! Wink Either way, I think we probably need to apply ourselves a little more. Grin

TimeForCake · 21/03/2012 19:08

Some of us struggle to get it neat at the front Chipmonkey, never mind the back Grin.

RatherBeOnThePiste · 21/03/2012 19:10

I'm going to start again.

This evening.

More woolly squares are on their way........

TimeForCake · 21/03/2012 19:14

Good luck Pistey! Go forth and undo. Hope you're happier with your results. What were the colours? I'm sure they look lovely really.

PurplePidjin · 21/03/2012 19:30

You know as well as anyone that it's effort that counts Angry

RatherBeOnThePiste · 21/03/2012 19:50

Cakey - it was green, pink and purple, tis going to be just pink and purple!

DutchOma · 21/03/2012 19:51

You do all know, don't you what the official word for 'undon' is? It is called to 'frog'.

KnottyLocks · 21/03/2012 19:56

Yep, frogging

Grin Well I didn't know that. And now I do! Thanks

TimeForCake · 21/03/2012 20:12

Two colours sounds plenty to me Pistey and pink and purple are a winning combo. I'm doing pink too - was going to try stripes by adding some cream, but then realised cream isn't in the colour scheme for Mrs K's blanket.

Happy frogging!

PurplePidjin · 21/03/2012 20:16

Pistey

RatherBeOnThePiste · 21/03/2012 20:16

Why 'frogging' though?

Aww.. thanks Cakey

RatherBeOnThePiste · 21/03/2012 20:19

Pidjy That's me right now Grin

RatherBeOnThePiste · 21/03/2012 20:19

When you have to undo your knitting you...

Hence the term 'frogging'. Grin

Well not the actual frogging, the term! Brilliant!
