Or a big Afghan kind of thing. My best friend and her mom like to go to yard sales. Her mom brought me a box of light and lofty or something to that and a really neat green and white. I’m knitting squares, which will match up and do a patchwork thing. Haven’t decided what the border will be. I’m thinking of some fall kind of color, but not quite sure. It won’t be something heavy. That’ll keep you warm in winter but it will keep you warm probably sitting on your couch on nights like we’ve had here. You never know when it’s going to be in the 40s or in the 70s at night lately. <div><br id="lineBreakAtBeginningOfSignature"><div dir="ltr"><div>Ericka Nelson</div><div>KD9VBX</div></div><div dir="ltr"><br><blockquote type="cite">On Oct 12, 2024, at 7:44 PM, henry osborne jr via NFB-Blind-Crafters <nfb-blind-crafters@nfbnet.org> wrote:<br><br></blockquote></div><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr"><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"><meta name="Generator" content="Microsoft Word 15 (filtered medium)"><style>@font-face { font-family: "Cambria Math"; }
