    brilliant totals:T and i like the new layout Kathy.

    was talking to some of the main players in the friends of the choir fundraiser group yesterday, they are planning a huge easter fayre so the bunnies ive knitted will be good for that but i think im going to have to go for quantity rather than quality now given the time frame, ive thought about those little chick/duck type covers for creme eggs, ive seen the patterns posted in the knitters thread (thanks maytaurus) has anyone tried knitting them and how easy are they please as ill need to knock out a few to help with funds.

    I've answered my own question, its only taken me a while tonight and i've already made 2 creme egg holder ducklings choir fund raisers. i've got a nice big ball of bright yellow dk so should get quite a few of these made before easter

    nikki - you seems to be knitting these up very quickly - do you have an easy pattern that you are willing to share for these?

    i would like to knit up a very easy 15'' blanket when i have made a few more Aaron squares.

    hope that you are all well.

    Hi all, have just printed off the bunny pattern posted by Nicki as I wanted a change but does anyone know what an american size 5 needle is in metric/ old english sizes? thaks
  • I'm using the crochet blanket pattern I posted up I can make one in a morning quite easily. I think it may be due to the fact I have been making them for over a year though. The other blanket I finished off is basket weave crochet I hadn't done one before but found that quite quick.

    Heres the links for you all
