What a great idea. I’m going to knit Kay’s Mitered Crosses Blanket (possibly with stash yarn, what a concept) for my cousin’s wedding in July!

I’ve been traveling and just got home today, so didn’t see this blog until now…the 16TH!!! I had already purchased Wendy’s pattern, but missed the deadline for the yarn discount. Well, maybe that will give me some time to think about what I want to make it out of. Stash is all in storage right now as I am in the process of relocating. Must…buy…more…yarn.

The APA of Missouri off of Hanley needs blankets to send the pets home with. They are currently out.

Just purchased the Demoiselle (Dragonfly Glove) pattern from the Sanguine Gryphon website. The folloing message indicates 50% of purchase will be donated to Japan relief if received by today.

“Dear Customers: From March 15 through April 15 we will be donating 50% of all pattern sales to the Red Cross of Japan for disaster relief efforts.”

Now off to The Loopy Ewe website for the appropriate yarn.

I just bought 2 patterns from Sanguine Gryphon (both sock patterns – one by Wendy Johnson) and will be making at least one of them by July 5. I will use some TLE stash yarn I have for them.

I have already bought both Wendy’s and Kay’s patterns, and have the shawl started in my green Wolllmeise won from TLE. (finally found something worthy of the beautiful yarn!)

For all you Sanguine Gryphon fans check out her site, there is a note at the top that states,”Dear Customers: From March 15 through April 15 we will be donating 50% of all pattern sales to the Red Cross of Japan for disaster relief efforts.”

Great idea, since we were all going to do some of these anyway! I have the Japanese Garden, Eiki, and the Magrathea, so now i will just be sure i choose a Loopy yarn to do them all in–which should Not be a problem….

Great Challenge Sheri – I am pondering one of the shawls listed but the donation for a local no kill shelter is also tugging at my heart. I have a friend who makes lovely felted kitty bowl beds. You are so generous to offer a discount for yarns used in this challenge. Too bad I did not get my 1st quarter challenge finished but that hat was a buggar to do and I ripped it back several times. Hope spring has come to your area – melody
