Knit Your Square to Give Your Share - PART 4

mrs-moneypenny

ours didnt break up till the 22nd which i think was a week later than most of the country so i think we get the same time off its just the other way round.

i agree with what jean says Shaz youve done more than me and her put together so far this year! be proud of your achievments

hoping the rain has blown away as i need to get some washing done.

Good morning and although I am sure you will not want to be back in France Kathy we shall be very glad to have you back online!!!
I hope you had the most marvellous time --In fact I am sure you will have done !xx

F1 -- They will be great -- It is actually more difficult if the squares are bigger than the 6". I usually put one border edge around each square so can work in a looser tension if they are a bit small. Thank you so much you are a star.

ISOM=-- I hope the way forwards is a little clearer for you now xxx Judgements made by other people are really reflections of their own inadequacies but that actually is no help when you have to bear them!

Shaz-- Lots of love xx

A big hug to one and all and I hope everyone will feel up to popping in soon .
Scaffolding still going up and bed going out so last sleep here for a while

Hello :wave:hardpressed ...Noro... I have heard of it but not too sure what type of yarn/ply it is, have you got a pattern in mind
mrs-m - O dear as if you haven't enough going on, but what a relief it's a cyst I had an appointment come through for my screening this morning it's for the 17th.
salome -O how romantic...congratulations to them both
chalky - Thats what you call a lot of work, but I am sure it will be worth all the effort and upheaval. Is DMIL is feeling better

boult - well done on your first item :T

I have been working on a blanket for the last few days and have done 48 hexagon squares...does this mean I have an addiction :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Hmmm good point Pippa - at what point / how many does something become an addiction .....................................

Answers welcome on that one - I always think im addicted to something if I do more than one of them

Well done you on getting through that many in so shorter time :j:j

sock-knitter

cheese and onion pasties, or a custard slice are my favs from greggs, if anyone is popping out lol
chalky, sounds like you are having major works done to your house, it will be worth it in the end
boult, well done on completing your first item
isom, hope the support meeting went well

managed to find a printer cable in one of my many many boxes, and have successfully set up my printer with no help, :jwhich is an achievement for me cos technology isnt my thing. apparently printers dont always come with the cable to connect to computer, kodak ones certainly dont.
have printed off two mens vest patterns to show friend tonight, hopefully he will like one of them, if not more searching to be done
hugs all

well done Shaz......new you could do it.....I am currently having a go at the link below (LH member) if I 'get it' I intend trying it for small cribs - you know how I feel about them.....I have a couple of drawbacks......I don't have size 10mm hook so trying 7mm right now and have a 15mm in reserve for the next plenty of sheets but no time for ripping them up (a bit like an old cowboy movie - boil the water and rip up sheets) after the trial will let you all know how it goes.

Custard slice and jumbo sausage roll please or not wanting to sound picky/greedy synthetic cream doughnut with that nice red sauce on yum yum yum

sock-knitter - well done and great you now have a printer you wont stop now printing things off - I started a large file last year hmmm now need a second one

edit: sorry roamin just went on the link - now I get you and what a good idea for cribs - you are so clever Im sure you will work it out xx I love that ladies blog been thinking of doing blog myself but I cant come up with anything that good

Thought I'd just pop in to say 'Hello'. I'm working on my fourth SANDS shawl now and have got a friend interested so we're going to both contribute to filling a box with them and then split the postage. This one is from really nice (quite expensive) yarn and such a pleasure to knit after #3 which was cheap and nasty and ruined my hands!
