Blanket for MrsY and her family. Donors, crocheters and knitters, can you help us?

[RatherBeOnThePiste]

We have heard the desperately sad news that MrsY has lost her precious baby son Benedict and have offered to make a blanket for her and her family. She is very touched by everyone's kindness, and would love to receive one. Here is the original thread

So once again we are calling on the Blanketeers for help - whether it be donating, knitting or crocheting. Will you join us?

PM me and let me know how you can help, if you need matching up and I will be able to help you

For pictures from previous blankets, see here www.woollyhugs.com

As in the past, the wool we are using is:

• Debbie Bliss Cashmerino DK (NOT the baby cashmerino)
• or Rowan cashsoft DK

They are very similar and can be combined

• 4mm knitting needles or hooks
• Cast on 33 stitches
• 6" squares

The colours for this project
Blues, warm purples, greens, silver and cream

So sad that another blanket is needed Sending love to MrsY and her family.

Thanks trib.

It's Fathers' Day and for many this day will be a difficult one.

Thinking of all the families for whom the blankets are made.

Thinking of our many crafters and donors for whom this day will also be very hard.

Sending much love to you all and the strength to get you through this day and beyond.
