Oh i've been off line for a week and a bit due to broadband problems and ill but actually had to buy more wool! I've done one and a half blankets though so been productive. And last week my mom sent 10 knitted teddies and 10 hats i'd done by airmail! She suck the cost via my dad's business. I've got a crazy idea that it would be great to get up to 10 blankets by dec if Jigsaw will keep on taking them until then.

Oh, I am a little jealous of you getting to the bottom of your stash. My yarn seems to be breeding. I have loads even though I am trying to crochet as fast as my hook will allow.

yes its a HUGE incentive to actually finish off blankets! I've got another 3 nearly ready to take up to Jigsaw tomorrow.  And 2/3 of the squares needed for a 4th blanket. But I am actually running out of wool yarn!

Well done Mary. Aren't the Jigsaw staff lovely. I have just finished off another blanket too and my sister has offered to take it to the store for me on her way into work.

Jeni you can subscribe to Lidl site, and they will email you all their offers before they come up. I just did this in Lanzarote Lidl just incase they bring any yarn over here.It costs nothing to go on their mailing list. x

How did we miss that ? I have friends watching Aldi for another of their offers as that wool knitted up a dream. We need to "recruit" some more spies !
