    Morning!
    Please could you update me with 1 baby hat. I used the crcohet "10 minute" pattern on one of the links. Took me longer than 10 mins but I am a novice[STRIKE]hooker[/STRIKE] [STRIKE]user of just one stick[/STRIKE] crocheter. Must definitely do more to DS1 jumper today. He has got slapped cheek disease says doctor which isn't serious and is the reason for the high temps this week.
    Hope your arm feels better soon Kathy.

    Good morning all !

    Found a really useful site which has hundreds of stitches / stitch patterns on it. I've started a blanket using the mock cable pattern, Its going ok just now I'll let you know how it goes.

    Hi all - Maytaurus - thanks for all the pictures, my 'feel better' teddy, and the patterns! Well done for finding them all! I love the angel so please add it to the #964 link. Thanks for all the extra links for the teddies, too.

    For those who want to do the angel, it can probably still be knitted on two needles but you would have an extra seam to sew, that's all. All the extra needles do is eliminate seams, giving a neater look to the finished item. Just remember to count the stitches for two needles, instead of three - if that makes sense!

    K2tog - (((hugs))) to your DS. You'll soon do the pattern in 10 minutes - the first one's the hardest one!

    Shelley - your poor postie - he must be working really hard!

    Well, back to the packing!

    KathyXX
