Lovely, thanks HQ :)

The gradual world take over has begun...

KnottyLocks · 03/09/2013 13:12

Ah dammit...someone has spotted our plan.

ifyourehoppyandyouknowit · 03/09/2013 13:16

I see you plotting like the cats from the cravendale advert. Little bits of knitted material suddenly appearing until all of MNTowers is covered and it then starts to spread like tribbles...

KnottyLocks · 03/09/2013 13:28

It's like you can see into our HQ Shock

Taking over the world? Now there's an idea Smile

Dutchoma · 03/09/2013 14:13

Tribbles? Wasn't that triffids?

KnottyLocks · 03/09/2013 14:27

Star Trek, wasn't it?

ifyourehoppyandyouknowit · 03/09/2013 14:44

Tribbles is Star Trek. Triffids is John Wyndham.

RatherBeOnThePiste · 03/09/2013 14:49

Nibbles. I coud do with nibbles. Olives and nice things :)

HairyPotter · 03/09/2013 14:56

Olives are just evil grapes! Can we have cheese? And naice biscuits?

I do like the new woolly home though. I will try and knit faster so I can take part more frequently. Grin I still have half finished little hugs as well as a nearly finished Billies blanket and a bit of a Babette panel on the go Blush

I'm a lurker - so I'm glad I found you (1/3 the way through my first Billies Blanket with another non-MN friend crocheting one too)

SoupDragon · 03/09/2013 15:59

If only someone had accessorised the place with blankets.

Sheesh.

Hello. A nice new bolt hole just in time for the start of term. when I can crochet without other people distracting me with trivialities like asking for food

Just finishing some going-off-to-Uni blankets for DD1's friends and then I will be back to hugging.

KnottyLocks · 03/09/2013 16:14

We need gherkins.

AnyaKnowIt · 03/09/2013 16:27

I've started another hug. tried to buy a lovely pattern from etsy but managed to block my dp card Hmm

TheNinjaGooseIsOnAMission · 03/09/2013 16:29

and gin, definitely gin Grin

SoupDragon · 03/09/2013 16:29

I think I've lost a ball of "Parchment" which means I've had to put TheOldDragon's second blanket to one side and will have to start on constructing her third whilst she starts on her fifth. FFS

GlaikitFizzog · 03/09/2013 16:30

Did someone mention cheese?? Tis nice here, can I stay?

GlaikitFizzog · 03/09/2013 16:31

I have 8 balls of parchment soupy.do you want one?
