Great Things Courtney Has Made

I thought I'd share with you these pictures that Courtney sent of her squares, and of darling Brynn helping out.




Stella and Brynn even helped with the blocking!



How wonderful that the whole family is helping out to make this gift of love for the new little one. Thanks Coco and Brynn (and Stella) for your love-filled addition to the blanket!

Portable Love

The updates on the blog for the blanket have been few and far between. This is for a number of reasons, but partly because even though Courtney is participating in this one, I'd still like the final product to be a bit of surprise! But I've blocked the first pile of squares, which have come from Marg, Jean, Tory and myself, and here's what things look like so far:

A week or so ago, the Yarn Harlot wrote a beautiful blog post about the meaning of knitting, in which she said that "Knitting is the best container I know for love - especially when you give it to another knitter." That's what we're doing here with this project, and with every Love Blanket which is so aptly named by Kyle and Courtney: offering up "portable love." Thanks for making this so special!
