A Blanket for WubblyBubbly (continued)

[KnottyLocks]

The first thread is nearing the 1000 post limit due to such amazing support.

This thread is a continuation of that thread which can be found here

i didn't understand the last word you just typed.
what does "sleep" mean?

Took my knitting with me on holiday but didn't manage to finish my shrug and so start my squares. Given the deadlines, I think I'll have to leave the shrug unfinished and get on (quickly!) with the squares.

Ah yes, Prettybird, too much gadding about Hope you had a nice hol.

6 suares done and ready for posting. 3 grey and 3 deep purple. Can someone PM address please I only have RBOTP and I think they are going to Knotty.
Are the square for MrsK going to same address ?

Trumpton, just Pmed you. Thanks once again.

All squares are going to the same address as so many people are crafting for both. Same blanket hookerupper too

I posted two parcels on Saturday, knotty, one marked with W the other with K. I hope they arrive tomorrow.

MsGrainger, did you send me any blues squares at all?

Reporting in . Just tidied up all ends and put in envelope. On their way tomorrow. for the mighty hookers .

Just sorting PMs

Love the idea of Knots being a Mighty Hooker

Small but mighty

Replied to PMs everyone

Morning

Just checking PMs , fingers crossed for a PM problem free day!
Back at lunchtime...

Morning!

Knotty - i did! One knitted and one crocheted, with two green crochet and one green knit. Would have been in carboard, with a note saying from Whore, for Wubbly. The green corchet square that is a slightky different shade from the other two green was my very first crochet square!!! The two green and two blue were from my donor - thank you very much whoever you were.

The other package had two off white, two lilac and one grey. Also wrapped in carboard, with the same note, for Mrs K. The white and lilac are from my donor - thank you to you as well.

Am working on a lilc, white and pink crochet square, but am having trouble joining wool, so have unpicked it three times .

WG, do you want to meet up and I'll give you a hand?

Lunchtime!

My lovely Whore you must crochet and knit with the speed of a thousand gazelles!
You are fab-U-lous!

I could offer to advise you on the crochet front, but quite frankly that could be a disaster
Because I actually haven't got a clue

I don't mind trying though

Whore - youtube search mikeysmail change colour for a fabulous tutorial to change colour

I was actually going to say to do it like that

Get to end of row/round. Poke hook through hole as if to slip stitch and join. Instead of yarn over in Main Colour, pick up a loop of the new colour. Draw loop back through to complete the slip stitch. Tie a double knot with the loose ends of your new colour and the remaining strand of your main colour. Cut off the main colour yarn with a few inches of tail (you also need a tail on your new colour)

If you want to be really clever, arrange both tails on top of your work and crochet round them - bye bye pesky ends! Unfortunately this doesn't work very well if you're doing a regular granny because you only have a couple of stitches to hide them in. But for rows, solid grannies,flowers etc it's great
