Afternoon everyone!

I have a friend/fellow baseball mom that has called for some help for her family.

May 17th her nephew (Austin) was killed in a head on crash. Him and the friend driving were pronounced dead at the scene. They had both just Graduated 3 days before.

My friends brother (father of Austin) is taking this really really hard. Austin was his only son.... they were very close and his first born. The grief alone is hard .... but the bills have become overwhelming!!!

My friend called to ask if there was anything I could make to auction off at the benifit they are having in Austin's memory. Austin went to school with my 15 yr old back in Elementary school... but moved on to High School in another town. So all around this is all close to everyones hearts!

 

So........................ if anyone can help.... I would like to make 2 blankets. One to be auctioned off and one to give to Austin's father for comfort!

I hate to be very specific with my request... but ............

I am wanting solid blue (RHSS Delft blue) ... and solid white ( RHSS soft white) squares done in this pattern....... found here.....

its a 12" square.............

 

 

Thank you so much for any help!!!

what pattern is that ?

[crabby rat]

Hey Tammy - I'm in! I'm sure I've got soft white around here somewhere, and I'll get some delft blue if I don't have it. Got a link to that pattern, or should we wing it?

 

So sorry to hear about the tragedy. Prayers going up & out for everyone.

you might be able to wing it but umm not really sure what she might end up with if I did

It would take me a while longer... and I'd probably have to draw it out a few times... yes, having the pattern will make it so much easier!!

[DogCatMom]

I won't be able to participate, but if there's a link to a publicly available pattern, maybe more crocheters will be able to help? Can you post the link here?

I can put a couple soft white in the mail tomorrow. Sorry I don't have any blue, and my local wal-mart doesn't have that color.

 

So sorry for the tragedies, I am glad I can help in some small way.

 

I have an address from June, 2009 is that still good, if not, pm me address for mailing.

[DebraKay]

Which one are we supposed to use -- the Argyle Diamond one in the OP's first post or Bobby's Square?

 

I hope I have some Soft White. Don't think I have Delft Blue either as I was needing it for something not long ago and could not find it locally. I do have a hat made of Delft blue that has never been worn. It turned out too small for my big old head! I could frog that.... will see what I can do. I will PM for address when I get them done.

Think this is it.

 

Janni this is a little different than the Argyle Diamond pattern listed in TeaKayCee's original post. Same design but the counts are different.

[teakaycee]

Thank you so much Mary!!!

Well DebraKay.............. I guess it since they are both the same look... either would be fine.... but yeah... using the one I posted would keep the count the same!

Thanks for helping hon!!!

Is it just me or are there a few mistakes in the Argyle pattern? I had to make adjustment in

 

Round 6: It starts out: "Ch 3, dc in next 6 dc, ch 1 "

I think it needs to be: Ch 3, dc in next 4 dc, ch 1 -- This keeps the diamond slant going starting each round with 6, 4, then 2 in Round 7.

 

Round 8: insert, Ch 1 after that very last "dc in last 10 dc", and before join to top of ch 3.

 

Round 9: Starts: "Ch 4, skip 1 Dc, ch1, dc in ch1 space, ch 1, skip dc,"

I think it should say: Ch 4, skip one 1 dc, dc in next dc, chi 1, skip dc

 

I hope I am right, because I pondered over this for quite a while. It looks right. Wish the pattern had stitch counts listed -- that is such a great way to KNOW you have interpreted correctly.

 

One soft white complete and guesss what? I found a skein of the Delft Blue so I'll start that color next. When do you need these by?

Thanks for getting the corrections out - I haven't had a chance to get started on a square yet - turns out I didn't have any soft white (which I thought I did - I knew I didn't have any Delft Blue)... My brother said he'd pick up the yarn for me today, and I also have my husband on that task as well... I don't have a vehicle when my hubby's out working (he left yesterday morning and will be home late tonight) until he gets his vehicle fixed, so I was kind of stuck until I could either get to the store myself or somebody saved me. I changed up my printed version, and went in and made the corrections on the computer file, also! Have a great weekend everyone!!

Heck yeah, no problem there! My wonderful brother brought me a BIG skein (one of the 14 ounce ones) of Soft White and a big skein (7 oz) of Delft Blue - so I'm able to rock & roll now!!
