"Hi Arlene. I have sent you some pics and links from Estelle and myself that I hope will help you sew your blanket together. xo
The anticipation of said blanket is killing me....but NO PRESSURE.....hahaha.
Don't overdo it, I want you to make a full recovery. :))"

"Aw Pat, feeling so very sorry for you. What a bummer!!!
My friend had bursitis in her hip a few years back and it certainly sounds dreadful.
Wow! No more than five minutes knitting, your fingers must be twitching. My knitting time this month has been virtually non existent and I know I'm getting a little tetchy.
I do so hope that things improve soon and you are able to take your trip. Sending big hugs. xoxo"

"Oh Pat, sending you the biggest virtual hug imaginable. I know how that feels and is the reason I avoid knitting in double strand where possible. The times I have had to pull undone knitting because one strand somehow got snagged/left behind/skipped a stitch....shudder, shudder, frown frown....."
"Aw Sharon, this is BEAUTIFUL!!! I LOVE how you have 'striped' the ends and the darker border gives it extra zing. :)) Thank you soooo much for creating this blanket in colours that aren't your 'natural choice'.
Feeling very honoured that you would choose to specially buy PINK yarn for this month. xoxoxoxoxo
I'm afraid all my pink yarn is feeling very sad that I have not had time to engage with it this month, though saying that I do have some sitting on my needles, twiddling its fibres (thumbs)."

"Thank You, Estelle, for confirming that for me. Also, I had missed the 3rd one that had the variegated greys in it. You are amazing, and the blankets look beautiful."
"Pat, I've had this song in my head ever since reading your post this afternoon. I hope you get to Phoenix soon.

CREATECARE GLOBAL
"CreateCare Global has set itself two tasks. The first is physical: to bring hope, support and comfort to children for whom poverty and loss are everyday tormentors. The second, and in our view equally important, is to spread the message to the world."
Our thanks to CreateCare Global for supporting the Square Circle Forum and helping to spread the wonderful work that KAS does.
