Thread 2! Woolly Hugs. Chernobyl 2018 is HERE!!!

[KnottyAndPistey]

You find us busily setting up a new home for our wonderful project. Will be making a special cosy corner for Soupy's poor blind cat - recently blinded by fiesta and her very bright blanket kit

As has been since the first year, this has been an astonishing team effort, folk never fail to amaze. THANK YOU! x

Our first project thread is here.... That was the one where we frantically made SQUARES and some folk made whole blankets, there was a lot of gin and the word characterful was used a lot


On the last thread we reached the dizzying heights of 64/100 absolutely gorgeous finished blankets, so here's hoping this thread sees us through to target...

Ooooo, and this will be the thread where we share the Early Bird 2019 info if anyone has been inspired or just wants to get ahead!


The photo is from last year, tis the wonderful group who came to Portsmouth.



Cracking on then

You're looking very fit there TQ

I packaged my blanket up for similar reasons. I just know that my son would go rifling through the cupboard it's in and before I knew it, it'd be on his bed and covered in dog hairs.

ROFLMAO my DD wants to know why but I can't tell her with revealing myuser name! (though I suspect she might know).

[KnottyAndPistey]

Your colour mix works so beautifully, folk are so clever at putting them together, loves it TQ xxxx

[KnottyAndPistey]

[TwitterQueen1]

fight OFF family... not of

[TwitterQueen1]

Thank you all for the lovely comments. I will wait to post until the 14th, though be aware that I'm already having to fight of family members (er.... DDs) who are already trying to steal it from under my nose!!!! Bad family, bad.

Colours were primarily magenta, saffron, bluebell, pomegranite, pistachio, violet, emporer, fuschia, ... I have a spreadsheet

[MadisonAvenue]

Thanks!

What an amazing opportunity for you both!

[KnottyAndPistey]

What colours you used TQ? Absolutely loving that mix

[KnottyAndPistey]

Re delivery!

We just need to clear the Christmas Snugs - they go the first week of December and obvs get the Christmas craft sale under our belts and then we'd be very happy to receive, although won't be posting pics on FB etc until we have actually launched the project, we can def let you know they are safe though!


Going to set the official date as from Monday 14th January, which is when posting technically restarts for 2019!

Love our Chernob project, Knots and I have been invited to Belarus to visit next April with the Bristol group that would be something

Sorry, going to post this in several places

[KnottyAndPistey]

So excited, we have been asked by the Shropshire group if we can make for them too, world domination is so close!

[KnottyAndPistey]

Woofty Spin!

[KnottyAndPistey]

Morrrrning!

[bookbook]

cor you lot! I haven't even thought about Chernobyls yet ! Too busy mucking about for the craft sale

[MadisonAvenue]

Spin that is really beautiful!

My blanket is ready to go whenever K&P start accepting them and I’ll start some squares at some point.

[Spindelina]

Technically I think I started for Candy’s Hugs, but I was doing squares for both!

I really like this pattern too. The geometry is pleasing.
