Pauline got the blankets today, blues clues are looking great. The Jelly baby feels very soft Red Heart is that another american import or did you buy in this country.
Now for some serious research into jelly babys colours, Wonder if one bag is enough.
Thanks for the sweets and the yarn can't have enough of that simply soft.

Hi Karina
I actually used Lion Brand Micro Soft for Jelly babies and it's lovely and soft. I get mine on line from banyantreeyarns.

Hi Nikki

I hope you are feeling better. All those blankets you have received I think you are going to need to stay in that hotel a while longer!!

Karina · 05-15-2008, 06:27 PM

Pauline I realize now that you put the name of the Jelly baby and not Red heart as the yarn. I have the Microspun from Banyantreeyarns. I think next time I place an order I will order a couple of balls of different yarns just to check out the other from the same company.

Nikki glad you got the blankets OK. I agree with Pauline need to book another night in that hotel to get all them blankets finished

Nikki got Holiday fun this morning thank you for the pen and note book. It is so pretty, will have to hide it from my daughter she is such a theif when it comes to pretty pens.

What colours do you have in mind for holiday fun?

Nikkilc · 05-16-2008, 06:18 PM

i did the bright green for fresh new grass and plants
maybe a nice sky blue or what ever you fell suits the theme

So glad you liked the set i fell in love with them too
teach her to knit and she can have one too

my daughter just started knitting she says wants to get a bit better then she wants to help on the blankets yay

Don't worry about it. I can cast on the lilac blanket if you want.
