Rainbow Sherbert is Looking So Pretty!

Nannaknits finished her portion of Rainbow Sherbert, and boy does it look pretty!

Grand Canyon Sunset is Smelling Like a Rose

Auntcrafty finished her portion of Grand Canyon Sunset.

The section completed was done in SS "Rose Violet" in the Diamond Panel pattern (from Knit & Purl). The color was inspired by this Grand Canyon Sunset photo I found. On my screen the rose color on the clouds matches the yarn. The pattern is because of the Arizona Diamond Backs baseball team. I tried to get a close up of the pattern, but all the pics came out blurry. However, here is a picture of the four completed sections.

Another Knitter and Another Blanket to Cast On

Wow! The charity knitting bug is really contagious! We have ANOTHER knitter! She is kaniger (both on KH and Ravelry). Welcome!

To celebrate the addition of our recent joinees, a new blanket will be cast on shortly. This one will be called California Coast, and it will be knit in alternating stripes of blue and gold, which are California's state colors.

The knitters for this blanket are:

auburnchick (casting on)
kaniger
sepenguins (rav)
Purlingkitten
nostash2big(rav)
knittinmitchie
tripletmomma (border)

The yarn will travel with the blanket, and all knitters will use the same yarn to keep the colors identical.

Exciting stuff, people! Lots of babies to knit for! Woo Hoo!

We're Adding to Our Numbers Again!

Please extend a warm welcome to sepenguins, a Ravelry member who just joined our little group! She's eager to begin.

Welcome, welcome, welcome!

Wyospinner Found Us!

Wyospinner found us! She needed a wee bit of help navigating around KnittingHelp.com, but now she's set. Yippee!!! She will be working on Blueberry Bliss, which will be started after the Olympics. Until then, the group has several blankets going...plenty to keep us busy for the moment.

We're Adding to Our Numbers!

We have a new addition to our group. Purlingkitten, from Ravelry, had decided to join the ranks of West Coast Oddball Knitters.




The list of blankets (to the right) has been adjusted to include our newest member.

Wyospinner, if you're out there, please send AuburnChick a message and let her know that you are still interested in working on the blankets.
