Log Cabin Baby Blankets for Charity - Page 10

I feel so bad having to post this. I am currently puppy sitting for my BFF while she is on her long over due honeymoon( they got married this summer and finally were able to get time off work). I was starting to work on Anastacia's crochet square last night when the phone rang. I got up to go find the phone and talked for a few minutes. When I came back to the chair where I put down the square all I saw was my yarn with a wet end. I assumed one of my cats stole it and was carrying it around. They love to steal my knit dishcloths out of the wash. So I started to look for it. Then the puppy threw up and you guessed it out came the crocheted square. I decided that even though it is washable no one would want a previously thrown up square.
I am soo so so sorry Anastacia! Sully(the puppy) is sorry too. Your square was so pretty. I honestly forgot that puppies can and will eat anything. I started another square last night and will turn and do another side. I don't want my mistake to hold up the whole group. Again I am sorry and I promise I will never ever leave any of these blankets out again even if I am just going to answer the phone!

Awe! Is the puppy ok? Our dog, boomer (who's passed now) ate half a sock and 5 DPN's (brittany's). I guess he needed them for toothpicks after eating the sock yarn!

It's okay, Holly, puppies happen.

Sully the puppy is fine. I had him checked out by my vet this morning to be sure. I have heard horror stories of yarn in dog's intestines causing all sorts of problems. His mom called today to check on him and told me he eats her underwear at least once a month. Apparently his favorite flavor is Victoria's Secret

Puppies happen about sums it up!

My packages went out to Holly and Rissa on Friday. Holly, don't feel pressured to work on the Extra Blankets. Catch up on the puppy disaster first.

I can't wait to get the extra blankets. I'm all caught up on the puppy disaster! Sully went home to his very happy, relaxed, and tanned parents tonight. I'll miss him but it will be good to know that no one will be eating my knitting or crocheting when I am not looking!

I knitted my part on the logcabin blanket last night. I took some pictures and will try to post them to ravelry today. I'll be ready to mail on Friday!

I got the extra blankets yesterday safe and sound! They are both so pretty! I'll be working on them this week, hopefully I will have at least one of them done for the mailing on the first.

Does anyone one know what the pink and green variegated yarn is on the girlie extra blanket? My friend is having a baby and that yarn matches her nursery perfectly. The note said the blanket was simply soft and red heart but I have never seen simply soft like this and it feels softer than red heart. Thanks!
