Oh that sounds like fun!! are they in regular weight yarn or in the string yarn? (fillet)

The afghan I just finished is a Single Granny Square done with Boucle Yarn and an L Hook it turned out big and really fluffy.

Cool it sounds pretty!!!

At present, I am working on Annie's Bitty Baby & outfits & cradle purse for my granddaughter's July birthday. Just finished a round ripple afghan for a friend's 50th birthday & am working off & on at small things, like bookmarks, lucky penny holders for sale & gifts, angels & other Xmas stuff. Always have something to take along on a trip.

Sounds Like a big project!! I am still looking for something like a shawl or poncho to work on but that is my winter project plans!!! right now I am making coster to match my afacian for my mom. Mom gets cold easly so I was working on a heavy blanket and I was planing on giveing it to her on mothers day but it got to hot to work on!!! lol

We've just finished making a family blanket for my dad. He is extremely poorly and we wanted to make him something to keep him warm - however also to give him some memories. We all made squares which had some significance (for instance we used to have rabbits as children so a square had a rabbit on it, dad was in the RAF so one square was in airforce blue etc). It was going to be a knee blanket however so many people wanted to join in we've made a full size blanket and a knee blanket. The good thing about working with squares is that they aren't too big to work on or carry around - but oh my, the sewing up....!

That sounds like a awsome blanket!!!

I agree about sewing up the squares!! I never can get them to come out right!!!

Particularly when none actually came out the 'quite' the right size!!!
