[NFB-Krafters-Korner] Finished my first rectangle

[Powers, Terry (NIH/NCI) [E]]

I bought 4 colors of yarn and intend to knit over the holiday or after.  Jeanette is sending me a braille copy of the patterns, so they will be easier to follow.

hi all,

I have been knitting rectangles too. I have three knitted rectangles of different patterns all in chocolate brown. I can make one more with the same color and then will move on to another color. This is a great way to use up extra yarn from past projects. <smile>


May God bless you.

One is meant to stretch slightly across and will look better that way, but I want to be sure what Jill thinks for assembling. Four are light country blue, and the other is pistatio green. I have another trip coming up so can make more. Anyway, I know Jill sent her mailing address, but finding it may take more time than I have right now. Cheers!!!
