Knit Your Square To Give Your Share 2009!

mioliere

Hi all

Gingernutmeg - you really go for the smoothie hats, don't you?! Great total. I'm updating just once a week at the moment, on Sundays, because I'm in the middle of moving to France so I'm trying to keep everything simple. You can still post totals daily, but I've asked everyone to do a weekly total over the weekend for me to update on Sunday evenings.

RedheadMum - I've thought how good it would be if we could all meet up! We'll have to give it some thought for the future.

Right, I'm off to look at the photos on the Wooligans site, then I'll have a bath and try and get something accomplished woolwise tonight.

I've just seen the photos. Jean, you've done a fantastic job on the knitting machine! Well done.

Pippa - your latest toys are great - I love the way you pose your toys!

Redhead Mum - I'm on for meeting up.

Does any one know a good knitted pull on bootie pattern.

Shezmit - where is your pattern for vent hats. Can't see it on your site.

i hope this helps u and we are running low on these ones HINT HINT:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Shelley is it vent hats in particular that you're running low on, or preemie hats in general? I'm planning a visit to Asda tomorrow evening, so I'll check to see if the post office there will be open, and if so get a parcel off to you.

shezmit - Thanks, I using double knit so which size do you want me to do (there seem to be a lot to chose from).

Am I right in thinking that someone on here posted a new boob pattern were the knitted bottom was easier that the original.?

shezmit

yeah vents are always needed but all hats are needed too

i can't believe how well these Aaron squares are coming in so far i have 3 complete blankets which has been sewn up, 5 complete but needs sewing up and loads of odd ones which i am trying to match up with other squares,

Mioliere / Maytaurus,

See above - I changed the format from lists to paragraphs this halved the number of pages and it posted no problem - don't know why.

Kathy - will it do for now? What do you think - its not quite so easy to read but all the info is there.
