Thanks Sal

I have been trying to think of a creative project I can do from the comfort of the sofa, whilst watching TV. As every night this seems to be where I end up and I just don't have the energy for anything else. So I thought I would knit a patchwork blanket for Harrison. Now I can't knit (despite what you think Sal! thanks for the vote of confidence anyway), well only in straight lines anyway. So I thought this would be a reasonably easy project for me.

I asked Sal for a bit of advice and she told me about this book she has 'Blankets and throws to knit' book, by Debbie Abrahams. I had a look at it on Amazon and went ahead and ordered it! Now I have no choice but to put my plan into action, have a project, learn to knit a couple of patterns and get some creative satisfaction.

Just have to buy the wool and figure it all out now. Fingers crossed.

Good luck with your new project. I think you have chosen the perfect one for relaxing on a sofa with - very theraputic.
