Knit Your Square to Give Your Share - PART 4

sketchingkari

Morning all

I'm new to the thread, but have been doing my bit, knitting for charity for a few years now. Mostly little preemie baby items, and 4 in squares for a group on facebook, where a lady sews them into blankets or jumpers for an orphanage in Africa.

Last week I managed just 6 squares, hoping to make a dozen this week

Marru

Thank you for your replies re knitting while flying. I think I will look into how to do "magic loop" socks and then take them with me, won't need that much space.

As a newbie there are awful lot of terminology here that I don't know. There will be a need for a new thread soon so would it please be possible to collect all these terms (and links to instructions) into the second post (the first post being the one that tells what the thread is about)? Just a thought

Seakay

Welcome newbies - what are the terms that you don't understand Marru? Is it knitting stuff or general forum stuff? I find that I don't undertand a lot of the contractions and initials that I find on forums, but Google can provide an explanation.
SK - hope that the council proves reasonable re the changes. Please don't push your activities over the next few weeks - we want your arm to heal properly!
Have been doing a lot of resting and helping very poorly dog of friend lately so very little woolie stuff occouring, have very nearly finished my (now) giant snood though!

mrs-moneypenny

agree with what seakay said, please rest your hand and dont try to do too much SK
marru if theres anything you arent sure of we are more than happy to explain
hope your friends dog soon improves seakay, well done on almost finishing the snood

Shaz well thats a step forward - hope the extra 3 weeks does the trick - just be careful.
roamin - i thought i had better order some more bobbly wool:rotfl: at Kemps' price it seemed rude not too:D there will be loads of squishing going on- the plan is all the females will be getting a Christmas scarf but we will see - great intentions and all that!!!
a big welcome to all the newbies - this is a lovely thread.

I am sorry to say i havent managed any charity knitting - been tooo busy doing for other people but will be back on track soon.

Love and hugs to everyone
