    Talking Thank you Arlene (halo475)!!!

    I received your box of granny squares yesterday!!!

    Ladies, Arlene sent me 64 granny squares!!!

    I think I just found someone who has a yarn stash as big as mine!

    Here are the counts for the squares:

    Denise - 6

    CJ - 6

    Sara - 11

    Melissa - 5

    Michele Annette - 8 


    Darlene - 8

    Arlene - 64

    I will put your name in a hat as many times as squares you sent me and have Jack pick a winner tonight.

    Thanks everyone-I had a blast doing them-I love to do the squares, it was an easy no brainer for me!! I used them to relax when my hands needed to be busy, but my mind was otherwise engaged!! LOL

    DeeDee-The red varigated is something that someone gave me quite awhile ago, and I have never found any like it since. But to be quite honest I have not been yarn shopping in quite sometime, as you stated above-I have quite a stash!! LOL

    I am not sure on the blue varigated if you mean the blue-like the red varigated above, or the blue - brown - purple combo, which is also slightly shimmery. If you mean the second one-I had 3 1/2 TONS of that given to me by my mother in law ages ago, and I absolutely love it, but unless you are doing granny square, its a pain to work with, as it splits so easily.

    If you need any more squares, to finish anything off, you just let me know, and I will get busy!!
