    :hello:
    Hi lainey or mioliere I have just finished another 2 squares for smokey, that makes me 5 now= 2 white,1 lemon, 1 strawberry and 1 pale blue. I am trying to ring the changes with the patterns and colours, so maybe it will look a bit like a rainbow when we have all finished, what do you think?

    Arent we doing well?:T

    Been feeling rough today so just got on with squares, and have done really
    well.

    Hi all! DONNY- I've pm'd you!

    PIPPA- I hope you feel better soon; you've done so well with the squares considering you've been unwell.

    Lainey - thanks again for the running total and I've updated my sig! It's all moving very fast now. Smoky's blanket is going to look fantastic, isn't it? I've crocheted two blue and cream ones so far (I haven't updated the sig with mine - I'll do that in a minute!) and I'm going to look through my stash for some other colours!

    Anyway, I'm going to update the list again, and my sig to include mine for Smoky!

    Morning! Finished my third square for HTA and started on one for smokey's blanket. I am following the star pattern jellybean posted - but i find switching from K to P during the middle of a row is hard work when knitting the next row, so it's slow going :D My first attempt had to be unravelled and started again and while the finished effort may be a little bumpy, I'm loving the learning.
