theluckielizard Posted March 18, 2010 Hi everyone, I work in a very small office. There is only six of us including our boss, so we are all pretty close. We found out today that our bosses wife has breast cancer. He told us this with tears in his eyes and a quivering voice. I have never know my boss to show his emotions in the three years that I have worked for him. Hopefully with the help of my fellow c-villians I will be able to not only present her with a blanket, but a matching pillow as well. Please use acrylic yarn as and I would like different shades of pink, with the awareness ribbons on them. The ribbon can be integrated into the pattern or sewn on the square. I would like 12 inch squares, but what ever you can make will be greatly appreciated. I have found a few pattern links, but please use any pattern that has the awareness ribbon you would like.
