ill put one together if everyone wants to send me squares

[JennyCrochets]

I'm in. What are we doing 12"? I can do more than one. How big do we want it? I can have them in the mail by Wednesday.

[ankey]

I'll make some squares! Just tell me what size squares you want in what color and what type of yarn and if you'd like the squares to be a certain pattern. Also, about how many squares total for this comfortghan? I think that's all the info we'd need to make the squares...

[JennyCrochets]

I've got some natural WW in my stash. I'll get started now. Put me down for two. I'll do more if needed. With 12" squares, 16 will make good size blanket, I think.

[CrochetinClara]

I want to help too, I can make 2 squares. We are making them 12", but what color do you want exactlly. You stated naturals and camo, do you mean shades of green, brown and tan? Or do you want the 'camo' yarn by Red Heart? I will have to run out and get the 'camo' yarn, but as far as the other colors...I have plenty.

Naturals (browns, greens, tans) solids and camo is the varigated variety....

 

 

I have the addresses for the Zoo and maybe for her parents.... but if anyone KNOWS they have an Addy for family please email TamiCrochets or me... thank you.

[CrochetinClara]

Ok....thanks..I will get started this evening!

[Seneca and Scooch]

What a wonderful idea! I have 2 squares already done and can get them in the mail to you this week. One square is tan and the other is a little darker. I'll put in something to help with the shipping too. Please PM me your address.

I can do 2 squares in a shade of dark green. I can have them mailed by the end of the week but I'm in tx - I'll try to use the fastest shipping method I can...

 

Edit: Tami can you pm me your address? Thanks!

[Daisy]

Okay, I'm in! I loved Steve Irwin and his Crocodile Hunter program. I miss him already and I do feel sorry for Terri and the 2 little ones. A comfortghan is a brilliant idea! I'll do what I can, but I will need an address to send the squares to.

[tlisley]

I have Camo yarn just waiting to be used. Send me an addy (pm) and I will get it out in 24 hours.

[coolhockeymom]

do you need anymore squares? I have some camo yarn

[Chiscrochetcrazy]

I could send 1 as well if you still need any

[mythunderbird]

do you need anymore squares? i have alot of cammo yarn as i am making helmet liners and i will be more than happy to make at least 1 or even 2 if ya need them, 12 in right? i will go ahead and make them and then if you need them i can send them tomorrow, i need a addy to send the squares to though. i still can not believe that amazing man is gone. and why ? we will never know but as i stated before he loved nature and i guess if you have to die, then dying doing something you love is the best way. i feel so bad for his young wife and the 2 little ones also let me know please as soon as possible. thank you

When we are talking cammo yarn....are we talking camouflage yarn? Otherwise I would take it as a kaki-camel color.

camouflage is what I was talking about

[Chiscrochetcrazy]

I'm doing 1 in this color is that ok

[TamiCrochets]

i'm thinking 12" squares in natural colors camo verigaged ok since they loved nature any wild life yarns ok too

[JennyCrochets]

I'm in for 4. I've got two already to go. I'll have two in the kahki color, and two in a dark woodsy green. Should go well with the camo. It would be kinda neat if we could ship it to one of our aussie crafters and they could hand deliver it.

[JennyCrochets]

I tried getting into the croc hunter site to leave some words, but the site won't load. I guess we can assume there's so much traffic to it, it probably is shut down for now.

[CrochetCatskills]

In WW weight yarn?

[MamaHooks]

In WW weight yarn?

 

Yes

[MamaHooks]

I have sent an email to the zoo and asked to the mailing address for condolence items... I am hoping that with in the week they will be about to get back to me.

[TamiCrochets]

Ladies you can send the squares to me. Please PM or email me for the address, or send a PM to yarnaholic.
