[pineknott]

okay,nobody faint,lol

I got here at the beginning of the month

the poor hats were neglected again this past month with only one done

I need to churn one out a day in Nov. to have my 50 by Dec.1st

[babypoohsmom]

Wow Linda, that is ambitious. You better get off the forum and get hooking!

[pineknott]

I have five done so far,darn other things that keep getting in the way of my hooking time,lol

[pineknott]

I did a search to find the hats I did earlier in the year,those and the current Nov. ones total 38,woohoo 12 more to go to reach my 50 goal

[katyallen815]

wow linda, you are a machine!

[babypoohsmom]

I got 17 more blankets cut, washed delivered this week.

[babypoohsmom]

Wow Linda, you are going to make it!!!

[pineknott]

Ta Da 50 hats completed

25 days till Boxing day

[babypoohsmom]

Yippee Linda. Right on time. Whew.

[CLLinda]

I had a rough year.  Only made two prayer shawls and 4 hats this year.  But I will strive to make more things for donation next year.  Breast cancer had me down most of the year, but I'm back up and going again.

Linda, never mind about the donations. That is plenty enough good news that you are up and about again.

 

I have truly lost count of what I've done this year. Less than last year for sure, and now I'm in a crochet slump and wanting to do other things for a while. Next year I'll get it in gear again too. I would guess it comes to around 15 lapghans and baby blankets. I sent three baby blankets to California, and the last six lapghans I made went to a charity here. The ones for the hospice earlier in the year are fuzzier in my memory, but I know there were at least 6.

 

So -- here's to next year!

[Gardener]

Linda, good to hear you are up and going again.

 

I did not do as much as previous years either:

5 premie blankets, a bunch of hats and booties, a baby dress, and a regular baby blanket. I have another blanket nearly finished .

oh Linda,thats such good news that you are doing much better

[pineknott]

the 100 hats ( 50 of mine) (50 of Rene's) were picked up today and will be given out at a party along with blankets,scarves and toiletries for the homeless

only 6 more days till the next boxing day starts

would anyone else like to take it over ??

this year,things with mil are still going steadily down hill,and I haven't really done this thread the way I would have liked to

[babypoohsmom]

If nobody else speaks up and people still want to have a Boxing Day CAL, I can take over. 

[pineknott]

Thanks Denise,I'd still like to be a part of it

I already have two hats for 2014

[babypoohsmom]

Yay Linda, I love that you are already started on your 2014 goal! 

I think I finally got the hang of my addi knitting machine, so I will probably make hats this year too. 

[pineknott]
