Thank you for stopping by! The blog part of this site has not seen much activity as you noticed. There are so many forums on various knitting boards now that most people who post do so on those.
There are still a large number of hits on the informational parts of the site, so we hope that it continues to be useful.
Please forgive my delay in responding. My computer time has been very limited.
While the blog part of this site isn't very active, the pattern sections and links keep very busy, so we hope that it still serves a purpose.
I'm sorry for the loss of your son. The loss of a twin can bring such a mix of emotions.
I would love to see what you make for the local hospital, and hope that it brings comfort both to the parents who are blessed by your outfits as well as to you.
I keep hoping to add more patterns here. I have knit up a fair amount of samples, but need to get the patterns written out. Finding "brain time" for that seems to be my downfall.
I am so sorry that you lost your tiny angel. I belong to a group that makes items for preemies and have been making burial outfits for some time. My husband thinks it is morbid but I said that someone has to do it for the parents. It is sad that you had nothing. If you need any patterns or help you can email me @ pstiff48@yahoo.com
This is a beautiful baby blanket. Can I ask
where you found the pattern please? I would
love to make a few things to donate to the
needy in our area as well as our local
hospitals.

Has anyone tried this? Someone has contacted me and is confused about the first part of the skirt. Since I don't knit, I can't help her. Is there a mistake in the pattern?
Twelve years ago our daughter gave birth to premee conjoined twin boys. We knew from the beginning that they would not live because of the way they were joined. Knowing that I would never see or hold them, I had to do something. I crocheted a small blue blanket for them to be cloaked in. My husband and I both put the blanket to our chest as they would have been if alive. I sat with the blanket in my arms and rocked in my chair and prayed for them. We both hugged and kissed the blanket, knowing that it would always hold them with our love. I know that it is hard for some to understand why we must do these things. Now, through this site, I hope I have found others who do understand. I plan now, to make and provide these "Angel Wraps" for others, so their love can always hold their own little angels.
this is awesome! Did you know the orginal pattern was made to be a dishcloth and i was a member of another charity she may still be in we talked about making them for babies whom pass away. I wonder if she remembers that lol. Its been awhile back. Anyway I am thrilled she made a knit version and then shared it what a blessing. I will print the pattern too :)
hey i am kind of new to knitting and i am trying get some patterns of how to make just a plain square look cool. the person who taught me how to knit is not as advanced and i don't really have alot of money to buy the book. i was wondering if you could tell me how to make that pattern. thanks.
I am so glad you posted here and gave us an update! It's good to hear little brother is hanging in there. We will pray about the cord and fluid and for each extra day he can grow safely before you hold him in your arms.
