The squares are to be made into a blanket as part of an illness awareness project on Ravelry. A different illness is featured each month and this month it is stroke awareness. My daughter, Grace, is hosting the month and she is responsible for collecting the squares and making them into blankets.
The squares have to be red (apparently this is the colour for stroke awareness) and they must be 6 inches square and made from acrylic yarn and can be either knitted or crocheted.
I'm hoping to make quite a few more squares this week. It's fun planning different designs and it's a good way to try new patterns.
Full details of this project can be found on the "12 Months of Awareness" group page, on Ravelry, here.
I hope some of you will be able to help. Grace can be contacted through Ravelry, her user name is Smiles-a-lot. Thank you.
