I know, I am bad about posting here.  Thank you RaeKnitsnWa for kicking me in the butt...

I have knit up 4 alpha blocks for the blanket, here they are

and here are the blocks I received from hularac via Ravelry...

and here are the ones from danishknitter via Ravelry...

Don't they all look great?!

I just got off the phone with my mom and she was finally able to remember the camera so she could take pics of the great stuff she has received!  I will only use first names but she has received a big box from Kathy, here it is...

And here is a box from Isabelle in Ireland again!

And she did receive the hats from Danielle too!

A quick update on the items that have been sent prior to these pictures...they have all been handed out!  And my mom is looking forward to getting all the squares too, she is gonna see about getting some help in the seaming and I told her we would all like some pictures, even if its the hands seaming, that would be great!  And she is going to also try to get pictures of the kids that come in wearing the items that have been sent, I think it would be good to see them being used.

Well, that is it for now, keep it up knitters!  You are making a difference for the people on the Reservation who receive these or even the people that hear about what we are doing!  Thank you all so much!

Goodies from Danielle

I Was Wrong

Soo my last post about those being my last squares well I was wrong lol there were 3 left & I picked them up so we could get this done & off to Debbie's mom. But I do promise you that this is the last of my squares lol. I also threw in a baby hat I made for good measure.

Alphabet Blanket Idea..

This is also posted over on Ravelry but just in case someone reads this & isn't a member there I wanted to post this information here too.

I had an idea & figured I would run it past everyone here to see what you all thought. I thought we could make an alphabet blanket. Everyone can pick a letter & knit it up then send it to Figaro she will keep track of them until we have all the pieces we need & then send them off to her mom for seaming.

In total we need 28 squares 26 which are the alphabet & the other 2 will be the state of California one will go before the A & the other will go after the Z. I figure there are 40 some odd members so there are enough that each person can knit one but if we don’t get enough people we can always pick up the extra letters.

So with that being said I will give everyone a choice of what letter they want to pick sorry first come first serve just post below what letter you want.
There are a few rules(yea I can hear the awwws)

1. Knit squares on size 7 needles please.
2. Use only acrylic yarn please.
3. As for color choices nothing to dark or variegated we would like the letters to be able to be seen please.

I will give everyone until the end of the month to say they want to help & pick letters then we will go from there with whatever letters are left.
You can find the patterns for the letters here at Knitting Knonsense

In case you are not a member of the Rav group we also have a Facebook group called Knit For Hope you can go there & check us out also but if you want to knit a square please email me at KnittingForHope@gmail.com & let me know your name & the letter you want if you have a preference.
