And no it's not mine ;) My sister had her second son on May 6. Liam Joseph was born at 9:27, weighed 8lbs 8oz and was 20.5" long. Welcome to the world, Liam!
When the going gets tough, the tough get knitting.
I know you know Velda has had some incredibly bad health news. It's going to be a rough journey for her, and she'll need a lot of support from her friends. Although we want to, we can't be there all the time for her... but I propose we make a token of our love and encouragement that she can keep by her side all the time as a reminder of the friends who stand with her.
A hug blanket, comprised of many squares knit or crocheted by those who care for her, would be just the thing. If you would be interested in contributing a square or two to a blanket for her, please email me as below.
I don't know how many people might be interested, so I can't say for certain what size of block I need. More to follow as I find out the level of interest in this project.
This project is best as a clandestine effort... I'd rather Miss V didn't know about it until we present the completed work to her. I don't have your email address so will post this to an older blog post so she's not likely to see it... you can delete this comment if you wish.
Thank you.
