RiverDaughter Knitting

RiverDaughter has shared a photo of the blanket after her knitting was complete!
(She used Red Heart yarn, in a gorgeous dark red shade.)

Now, the blanket will be traveling to Ginger0104 in California!

- Blanket is in Wyoming!

Hi all,

Just a quick update, the blanket has arrived in Wyoming, RiverDaughter has received it with a few presents added by AnreeAce. There are no pictures as of yet but as soon as there are I'll post them.

I can tell you AnreeAce said she got the presents from Fresh Water Fibers. Apparently one of the vendors at the Eugene Saturday Market sells the yarn.

- AnreeAce is done!

Wow, our blanket had a bit of a rough start. But it sure is moving along quickly! AnreeAce has finished her portion of the blanket. Apparently her mother had a health scare while AnreeAce and the blanket were together. So AnreeAce says, "there's a lot of hope for healing worked in with the knits and purls." She is going to be getting the blanket in the mail to Wyoming this afternoon.

Here are some pictures of the blankets progress:

AnreeAce use a tumbling block pattern which personally I think looks lovely! Thanks to all those who have knitted so far, and all those waiting to add their own love and caring to this blanket.

Our Blanket is Now in OREGON!

Yippee! Our postal service is back on track now, with a superfast shipment to AnreeAce in Oregon. :) REVS was VERY good to her, sending lots of NICE goodies along with the blanket, including Girardelli Chocolates, a lovely card, 2 skeins of blue & purple sock yarn from Royale Hare, a Burt's Bees Hand Care Kit, and 5 hand-made stitch markers.

- REVS is done!!!

Well REVS finished her portion of the blanket and it looks WONDERFUL!!! She knitted her portion in the Butterfly pattern out of the Vogue Stitchionary. So our very pretty, much loved blanket will soon be winging it's way to Oregon!!! Here are some pictures.

An up close and personal look at the pattern:

A look at the "wrong" side.

Ok, we are now 3 knitters down! AnreeAce is the next on the list. It should be a pretty quick turn over, as the blanket will be traveling form Washington State to Oregon State. Since it won't be traveling internationally, it should be less likely to morph.

If anyone is interested in participating in Blanket #5, there are still 11 spots open. Here is the link to the forum for the fifth Oddball Charity blanket so people can sign up.

These are such special projects to participate in, I would highly suggest signing up! The men and women of KH are such amazing and giving people. It is a privilege to be a member!

- Back in the USA!

Hey all,

Well the blanket is back in the USA. Dangles decided not to try her luck with the Postal Service, as our blanket might have turned into a dancing camel....so she hand delivered it to REVS. Very cool of her. Dangles and REVS met up, did some yarn shopping (of course) and went out to dinner. According to REVS, "It makes the whole thing so much more special if you can put a face to the previous and next people that will knit on this together, creating such a lovely piece of love and compassion."

Here are pictures of the blanket and the extra presents that Dangles included:


Very cool! Our blanket is making progress, and the compassion and love is spreading. Truly this will be a special give for whomever receives it!

Pictures of the blanket!!!!

Hi everyone! Dangles has posted pictures of the blanket, and it's beautiful. The color she chose goes wonderfully with the color Shandeh started with.
