There's so much going on here I don't know how you keep up !:AThe object of life is not to be on the side of the majority, but to escape finding oneself in the ranks of the insane[FONT="] —[FONT="] Marcus Aurelius[/FONT][/FONT]0 -
Good morning all and thanks for your updates. I haven't anything to add except that, Shez, all your teds have faces now and will be on their way back home tomorrow! I shall start a lamb today from that lovely Fuzzy Mitten pattern and, because I like to have some knitting and some crochet on the go at the same time (it helps relieve the tendonitis in my hands if I alternate between the two), I shall start crocheting a baby blanket for my forthcoming grandchild; I'm looking forward to doing that. Once that's finished, I shall post a photo of the toys I've made on the Yahoo group.
Thanks everyone - have a great Sunday!

PLEASE NOTE: Thanks to everyone for such a good response to Chalky's appeal for the orphanage in Spain. Her SIL has arrived with all our items, and they have been delivered to the orphanage. Chalky has posted some great photos on page 27 of this thread. I think we will have made a big difference to a baby who arrived there with nothing; doesn't it make you feel good?!
LATEST UPDATE: Don't forget to let me know if I get these figures wrong - as some of you know, it's not difficult for me to make a complete hash of it!

Craftlady - I hope you dont mind me asking, but I have been looking at your photos on the Wooligan site, and love your IS hats, especially the Hippy ones, can I ask what wool you used?
I have been looking for a nice random stripey wool for ages and that one looks just right.
Thanks
Anne
