    Right all, I have continues with the knit row pearl row and am now doing a big block of the purple in k2p2. BUT, it keeps curling inwards . If i iron it will that fix it? Or will it straighten out once off the needles? :D Thanks for all the kind comments xxx

    p.s. What are we doing with the squares/blankets when they are finished? Sorry to seem thick :o:o
    There are various places that will take them.
    Loving hands and Bonnie Babies are two of the most popular ones, and there is also PreemiesUK (which Shezmit who comes on here is involved with). If you look on LH or BB websites you will find lots of info about patterns appeals etc, I am not so familiar with PreemiesUK pages (but as I said Shezmit can tell you about them).
    Welcome to you and all other newbies.
    Back to DS's bright yellow balaclava (he chose the colour from my stash!).

    just been to see my parents as its my birthday, and they asked me to call in, mum is having surgery on her cataracts, hope all goes well for her.
    it's my birthday today, and they had bought me a lovely book called 'knits to share and care', got some lovely ideas for charity knitting as well as web site address for all the different charities needing knitted items, and she also bought me some lovely soft wool.

    HI Everyone,

    Shaz Happy Birthday. Hope you've had a lovely day and what a brilliant pressie.

    Elanie so glad DS is home and all is well, that wool is fab, love the colours.

    Jean I laughed so much about your alarm clock antics, thats the sort of thing I would do.

    Zippy your scarf looks fab, well done brill for a first attempt.

    Mioliere love the dress you've chosen for Summer.
    Hugs to all.xx

    could be your first project in 2010! I know I should be doing the dinner but if I hang back long enough perhaps someone else will get to it before me - ha ha
