Embrace the pink!!
Huge thanks again everyone for these glorious Chernobyl squares and to lovely Lucy J for her marvellous constructions skills. It's a corker! xxx

@TheWoollybacksWife about 15/20g if I've worked it out correctly. Thank you.

Though I've just noticed K&P have asked too - if @KnottyAndPistey have a ball to spare I can do some extra squares?

@Okki I can manage that. PM me your address and I'll pop it in the post.

@TheWoollybacksWife thanks. Ill attempt to work out how to do that from the app

It'll have to wait till tomorrow now. I keep getting redirected to a Sky opinion poll and am now ready to throw it all through the window!!! Aaagggghhhhh

Okki - how are we re the wool?

Thanks Woolly xxxxx

Sorry. Manic day yesterday but I have posted Pistachio to Okki.

@TheWoollybacksWife wool has arrived today. Thank you very much.

Fantastic @Okki Is there enough?

Fantastic thanks Woolly. Hooking away madly. Keep getting sidetracked by other little things . Want to try and post some squares off too.

Can someone PM me the address where to sends squares, i am driving myself mad trying to find it.

Thank you

Five - just pm 'd you the address
How are you ?

Thank you, taking everyday as it comes and enjoying the sunshine, thank you for asking

Posted 17x 6" squares yesterday.

I'm having a final blitz on my Chernobs stuff today. I've got the last few squares to sew the peskies in and I should be ready to post tomorrow.

If I post first class they might reach you by Tuesday for your big sort out @KnottyAndPistey

I also have one granny square that is 5/7 completed - it needs a round of violet and a round of lavender to finish but I have run out of yarn. Should I pop that in?

I had hoped to do a few spare , but Im still plodding on with a bit to go - half way along square #17 of 20 of my blanket so I won't be able to do any in time . But DD1 has whipped up a couple of plain grannies , so will post those off tomorrow .

I found a bit of violet and I've managed to finish the 5/7 square. This is what I have got left from 17 balls of wool. I have a full blanket (south coast) and 5 x 12" squares and 18 x 6" squares (T Towers) going in the post tomorrow.

Woolly I think you've got those addresses the wrong way round?

Thanks Spin I haven't addressed the parcels yet so I'll check.

Anyone know what the deletion was about?

Just popping on to say Hapoy Mothers Day. I am the happy recipient of Gin. DH brought it back from Italy and is labelled as a Mediterranean Gin distilled from Olives, thyme, rosemary and basil. Drinking it with Fever Tree Mediterranean tonic. Very nice. to everyone

Ooooooo. What did larsanator write?!
