Lost ... and Found ...

 Lost ...
One of our group has lost a small tin with her 'tools of trade in it' - scissors etc - if anyone has seen it would you please see me at the next meeting - thanks.

And Found ....
Two new people joined us at our meeting this week - Brigid and Amanda. Amanda has visited us before with her beautiful baby - and we hope to see her again when time and schedules allow .Brigid found us through the local paper (thank you Northern District Times!) and this blog! Brigid volunteers with a local charity offering aid to women and children in Afghanistan - more about this next week, and in the meantime, some of the group will knit beanies for these children for the cruel winter weather they experience.

And Finished ...
Some more of our knitting for your viewing pleasure!

This is a rug that was made using squares that Cecilia (from Ravelry) donated when she transferred overseas. In my wisdom, I thought I could make two rugs for Wrap With Love out of them by doing a black border around each block to extend the length - but I should have remembered how bad my maths is! So Winter Warm is the recipient of a colourful, warm blanket for a child!



 Some little cardigans, vest and a jumper for Winter Warm.








Two more wraps for Wrap With Love.

  3. Thanks Cecilia - it is a good group - we have a lot of fun and achieve something for others at the same time. I hope you've settled into your new home and job - and that you are not too cold!
    Cheers
