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

Catmint your parcel has arrived thank you so much. I'll get cracking tonight while I'm waiting for my construction kit to come.

Thank you too for my adorable new friend

My pleasure!

Oh my goodness! That is SO cute 😍

I'm sure there will be some for sale at the next WH craft sale.

Okki I didn’t know it either, and I’m also not-quite-yet 40 (will be before the hugathon though!).

Look at that mousie!!!!

Hello to all of you kind people at Woolly Hugs. The children loved the blankets, hats and the other nice things you sent for them here on the Isle of Wight. Your support is much appreciated and all of your Woolly Hugs have now found a new home in the Koresten area of Ukraine---an area still affected by the nuclear accident of 1986. With winter temperatures often much below zero you can be sure the blankets and hats will be well used!

          Very Best wishes, Island Hosts.

❤️

Lovely picture and love the mouse!

My kit has arrived safe and sound.

Oh good news! Thank you so much x
