comfortghan squares needed

[Tomeygirl]

I am making comfortghans for a nursinghome in my area and I am looking for people who want to help make squares and send them to me to put together.I myself am using the pillowghan pattern at craftbits.http://craftbits.com/viewCategory.do?categoryID=CRO .They need to be the same size and they need to be boardered in white. Anykind of square will do as long as its 16 inches. I am using a g hook if that helps anyone. Pm me if you want to send squares. I am using worsted weight like the redheart yarn on the squares that I am making. Thanks for reading. Any help will be aprechiated:hug.Just trying to brighten the day of the residents at the home:sun.:tyEveryone.I am only making 3 blankets.

I need about 13 square I already have one almot done I am only going to make two blankets one for a family friend at the nursing home who just had a heart attack and her roomate.My squares came out about 16 1/2 inches I used a g hook and red heart yarn.There is 15 rows on each square. I guess theyarn made the difference in the size. I wanted to make blankets for everyone there but that would take forever. So after these are dont I am going to make smaller items like walker caddies. And the squares need to be trimmed in white becuse they are going to be joined in white.The reason for the size is because they are pillowghans.If you wanted to send more you can Ill just make more and take to the nursing home when I go. Ill ask the residents who recieve the blankets if I can take a photo and if I can Ill post pictures here so everyone can see them.If you or anyone wants to send me squares just pm me so i know who to send my address to. Thanks again your crochetville friend

Do you want all of the squares in the pilloghan pattern? Any color just trimmed in white or do you want different patterns as long as they're 16 1/2 inches? I'm in the finishing stages of a project but I can try to get you something if you PM me your address.

[minnisoda]

what are walker caddies?

 

you can use the reg triangle shawl pattern and just change the color on each row like this:

 

this is a really simple pattern to use
