Oh, I'll order some more at some point along with umpteen other items.

But I'm sure I ordered one from Deramores and had some left over from a previous ball... I have so much Stylecraft hanging about, including an unopened bag that arrived yesterday) it is embarrassing. I can't work out where it's gone. Unless I've used an entire ball crocheting a medium sized hug together and putting two rows of the border on and gave the other ball to my mum Confused

Still, it's not like I don't have several other blankets to keep me busy :o

You would be doing me a favour!! I swear its breeding in my stash unit.

Do you ever need help stitching the blankets together? I find that bit quite therapeutic.

SoupDragon · 03/09/2013 16:56

Perhaps mine left home to join your Parchment commune :o

Oooh this is nice! Do we have bean bags and some good lighting [blind as bat emoticon]?

JollyHappyGiant · 03/09/2013 19:07

Mmm, cheese. And bean bags.

Happy to be here. I'm only a very small contributer so far, but once my children are a little bigger (DD is less than 2 weeks!) I shall have time to do more.

Love the room, just needs some yarn bombing Grin

GlaikitFizzog · 03/09/2013 19:16

Ooh, I completely forgot about this, but this isn't very far from me

I think I might try to join them!!

Here you all are! This calls for cocktails. With cherries, umbrellas and everfink.

Morning.

All three SmallDragons back to school today and I don't want them to go.
