And the shawls look great :) I really love the colours you've picked for your next blanket. :)Lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12332731153719707864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3759236703511791991.post-63665810883555643372012-07-27T13:52:55.312-07:002012-07-27T13:52:55.312-07:00I knew you had a lot going on, but wow!!

I'd like to see more of the one with the button band - that sounds like a neat idea.<br /><br />As for your sideways pics, I don't use Blogger, but I've read of others having this problem. If I remember, one of the solutions was to edit and save your pics in Picasa (or another editor) first and pull them in from there. It might be worth a try, cuz it's a shame to have to your lovely sister on her side!!<br /><br />I vote for a blanket made from squares of some sort - big and little ones maybe? Really like the colors you picked. I made my first afghan from Vanna's Choice and it's soft and has washed well...<br /><br />Good luck in the games!RobinBrzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16529036593590503535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3759236703511791991.post-53938013834533401172012-07-27T12:59:45.993-07:002012-07-27T12:59:45.993-07:00Love all the scarves!

But maybe that's because it's soooo hot out now? I couldn't bear the thought of a big heavy mass of fiber on my lap!Minding My Own Stitcheshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13946752212001968413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3759236703511791991.post-75394987880158500152012-07-27T11:41:18.531-07:002012-07-27T11:41:18.531-07:00Your shawls are all lovely, well done for getting ...Your shawls are all lovely, well done for getting them all into circulation.

I considered participating this year but decided it would be too difficult with a 3 month old to take care of. :) Maybe next Olympics!Rosemaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17699055172049185864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3759236703511791991.post-19010238999800217892012-07-27T10:10:02.832-07:002012-07-27T10:10:02.832-07:00From the pic, the solar dye looks great.
