Knit Your Square To Give Your Share 2009!

mioliere

Hi Ilovetea (so do I!) - it's great to have you on board. As you've been reading the thread for a while, you probably know where to find a lot of info, but please feel free to ask questions. We're a helpful bunch on here! I hope you enjoy it here.

I've got my internet arranged for when I move to France so that's a major worry out of the way - as long as it all works when I get there!

Jean in France - I ended up with Fr Telecom for what I think is a good deal, so I'll let you know when I've worked it all out!

Margaret - it's lovely to hear that you are enjoying your knitting! I love it and find it very soothing at the end of a hard day.

I've emailed Kemps Wool and received a reply from them that they post overseas - but they warned me to keep orders below 2kg to keep it cheap!

I've spent all day on paperwork - I do hope we find the time to pack! I can't believe how much paperwork there is!

Prfungi - if your friend wants to join us, she's more than welcome!

Anyway, I am DEFINITELY sitting down with my knitting tonight - no matter what happens. I need it to help me out of my ongoing panic mode. I will call back later; dinner's on now!

Hi, a bit fed up of squares now, so doing first angel pocket. Have been looking at bunting but am unsure what K1B is, can anyone enlighten me?

shezmit

Which bunting pattern are you using????/

Hi Hellsbells
http://www.touchinglittlelives.org/knitbunting.html
This is the one for bunting that most people use I think. I haven't done an angels pocket yet and I'm afraid I don't know what k1b is - a typo?! The bunting pattern definitely works fine - even for me and isn't difficult but makes a change from squares. And there's very little sewing up!
Having a night off from dreaded Dennis the Menace jumper as didn't manage it in time so may as well slow down and do more over the weekend. Will see what I fancy making after a nice bath when my boys are asleep.

Has anyone "seen" Shazrobo or Maytaurus lately? They both seem to be awol and wondering if they're ok?

While Kathy is moving is anyone up to sew up some teddies for me intil she is settled please

I wouldn't mind doing that for you and, as I'm only in Worcester, I can get hubby to fetch and carry to save on postage(not told him yet though). I have loads of stuffing, too
