Do you have a photo hosting account like Flickr or photobucket?

I use http://www.photobucket.com to host all my pictures, buttons, banners, etc…all you have to do is make an account with them, save the picture to your computer, upload it on photobucket (the instructions on the site are really clear), then click the BBCode link under the picture you want, copy it, and paste it in your signature. :slight_smile:

Yay! Lots of blanket knitters!

I’ve got some work to do now! So many addresses to keep track of.
I’m so glad you all want to be part of this!

I’m not the most talented artist in the world, but here’s my attempt at making a button for the knit-along.

#32

Gank away! :teehee:

Newamy just sent me a private message with the following thoughts:
“Are you going to set a time limit like say 2 weeks to knit then send it on? I know it seems pushy but sometimes rings can get “stuck”. Also if someone decides they really don’t have time they should send it on or just ask to be skipped.”

I agree with this 100% :thumbsup: Two weeks is PLENTY of time to knit a few rows on the blanket.

Also, some of us may have problems that arise at exactly the same time the blanket appears on our doorstep. If that’s the case, just let me know, and forward the blanket on to the next person. We can send it back to you at a later date when your life isn’t as hectic.

#34

I think that’s sounds like a really good idea. Good thinkin’ NewAmy

#35

Okay, I finished updating my spreadsheet. Right now, we have 15 knitters, including myself. Great start! :cheering: :happydance:

Here’s the list, which is “kind of” in order. The first 4 knitters will be getting the blanket first, by their request. The rest of you are just listed in random order.

Yay! I was hoping you’d join, Ginger! :heart: :hug: :heart:
(BTW, I finished Mom’s poncho, but neither of us has had time to get together for her to have it. I’ll try to take it by tomorrow.)

#38

Finally! A charity for oddballs!!! :cheering:

#39

You’re a goddess to clean up my work that way. [size=2]stoopid old poncho anyway.[/size]

The schedule looks like the blanket won’t make it to me until after tax season, which is perfect.

Jille… :teehee:
