Knit Your Square to Give Your Share - PART 4

happycrafter_2

nearly finished a prem cardigan just a sleeve to go! and the neckband but should get finished tonight :j it is part of a set with a hat and teeny tiny socks.

Can't believe that when you start knitting and tell people what you are doing you start getting requests to knit for other people next time Im gonna keep me mouth shut :rotfl:or invest in another pair of arms!!

I have never had any nastiness on this site, but I do tend to stick to a few threads which have the same nice people posting in them. I did notice once some one posted in a dif thread and people were quite rude to the OP and it was moved to a nicer section where people did help.

well doen happycrafter! i know what you mean about requests" mine is more that I decide I want to make sommat but then not enough hours in the day - esp work getting in the way!!
oo lucky you seeing woodpecker miol!
Good to seeyou F1!
There have been a few people whove not been that friendly and some on the sight seem to revel in meaness..problem is the site is so big now that its hard to police...you can report posts if theyre offensive, racist etc...in my exerience most here are a lovely supportive bunch and we support each other in ups and downs as well as many a brave tale of rescued wool!!
Am feeling the start of a cold so am off to bed in the hope that the vitamin c will work and Ill wake feeling bright and breezy!

Good morning all - really quick stop as "mojo" has come for a visit says he intends to be quick and take advantage!!!:D

To all those in Scotland I do hope the weather is not as bad as the weather lady reported this morning for you - how awful - its cold down here and rainy"ish" bit dull we do keep seeing a hint of sun but that is it - take care and keep warm xxxx

Isom - hope the cold does not develop into too much - you are suffering lately poor love xxx

sock-knitter - hang on in there - how nice you get paid in wool (yummy!) - is one son not at school at moment then (sorry if i missed something being foggy as usual!) - take care xxx

Finished a baby blanket this morning and have sewn up two preemie hats that I put on stitch holders (naughty habit to start really)

Anyway love to all will try and pop back when mojo goes home:rotfl:

Mrs M fingers crossed for the scan. How are you feeling generally?

ive had constant back ache nagging across my lower back for days now but i think that more to do with lugging furniture and packing boxes so no one but myself to blame there:o. the funny thing is the dragging sensation i get in my adbomen which made me go drs in the first place is still there but its the opposite side to the one they seem to think is dodgy (depending on which scanner you listen to ) the second one said she couldnt find anything but then read out the notes from the first scan which was pretty scary the stuff they thought that showed:eek:. im hoping the second one will be right, got to wait just over a week for the mri as it was fully booked till then but they said theyll ring me if a cancelation comes up. had to have another smear yeaterday as the first one the consultant did was "unsuitable" nurse advised fasting blood test for saturday am as she said she my as well check my colesterol as everyone else is checking something.

did a bit of knitting yesterday am a scarf for eldests ds friend, not really able to do much charity wise at the mo with the house being upside down but will get back on track in a month once everything is hopefully normal

i really hope all the poorlies are improving and the awols are alright and just too busy to pop in.

hugs and kind thoughts to all

mrs-moneypenny poor you having to wait another week, fingers crossed for a cancelation. It would scare me too, lots of hugs. I hate having a smear, but I guess everyone does. Try not to do too much, give your poor back a rest.

ISOM how about something small like angel pockets or wraps?

Wasn't it lovely to hear from Chalky? At least she's not where all the horrible weather is thank goodness.

mioliere I have lots of birds visit my garden but have never had a woodpecker, I would love it. We did once have a sparrowhawk land on the bird bath, it was such a beautiful bird, it didn't stay long enough for me to find a camera though. We sometimes get pheasants in rooting around, and they are beautiful too, I worry about them though, can never remember when the shooting season ends. They're very noisy so you know when they're about!

Shaz hope all is well, how lovely to have a friend with a wool stall.

love to everyone, especially mia's. xxx

mrs-moneypenny

i agree i was worried about chalky as i couldnt remember which part of australia she was in. so glad shes having a good time.

we had a sparrow hawk but i wasnt best pleased as it came down to snatch a poor sparrow off our feeeders.
i saw a woodpecker a couple of years ago in the trees behind our house - a mostly white one with bits of red and black. we get tons of sparrows on our front i saw a thrush for the first time in ages last week

we get a lot of magpie's in our garden
mrs mp, how awful having to wait for an mri, hope all comes back ok
both sons at school, which is wonderful, but josh is home at 3pm every afternoon, and its so difficult being around him, walking on eggshells at mo, when he is here. he is currently on bail til he has finished the referal work with the youth offending team, which will be another 9 weeks.
f1, i have a naughty habit of putting things on stitch holders too
just had my best friends mum call round, with a pattern and wool, that she wants doing, its for a ballerina bunny, the dress on the bunny has knit in lace, which i have never used before, so its time i learned
hugs all
