Knitted squares

musty? I hope not

Must

I musty be a bit slow, one in an evening.
The ones I do are 8" though, some are 4" squares

Our Knit and Natter group has been making these too. I found I could make two in an evening.

I knit squares - it's a bit mindless but relaxing in between other, more complicated projects.
Mine get sent off to make blankets for Syrian refugees in Turkey - it's extremely cold there in the winter.

I don't have to sew them together either, for which I thank the ladies over there (I dislike sewing up knitted items).

Sounds like a lovely idea.
And it brought back a memory - when I was about 22 I had a job as a supply teacher in a school in Clapham Junction for learning disabled girls. I can't claim to have been a very good teacher, but I organised a project of knitting squares and making a blanket for children in a Dr. Barnardos home. We had a class outing to visit the home with the blanket, I think it was in Essex, a long way from CJ.

kitlong you obviously have your finger on the pulse more than me.
Excuse the pun
I will continue to spread the word

kitlong thanks for the info - I had started knitting and then stopped as I had also read that they were not wanting anymore - I shall start again then

Ah, ninathenana, didn't know where to post!
My DS partner only spoke to the Nurse on the unit yesterday, so not sure about this then.
I've knitted a few, I'll just crack on and do more and send them to the Nurse who mentioned it yesterday.
Thanks all

I posted about this a couple of weeks ago on the Arts & Crafts forum.
I have since read that the recent appeal has resulted hospital having more than enough squares now.
I wish your twin GC well Tommies saved the life of my GS 5 yrs ago with 2 heart ops.
