Hi everyone!What a wonderful surprise!
I was speechless when I got a tweet last week from a friend that she recognized my bobble squares in an article in the Spring Issue 2010 of Interweave Crochet. :)
I ran right out and got a copy..jpg)
If you flip to page 25, a photograph of a completed blanket for KAS is there with some bobble squares that I made and donated to Knit-A-Square Charity last year. If you did not see it, here is my original post about the blanket when it was first photographed last May. :)
It brough happy tears to my eyes to see the square then and again today!

It truly is amazing how we can touch people all over the world in as small a gesture as crocheting and sharing and 8 x 8 square to keep a child warm.
How magical!

That's so lovely! And now you have a special way to remember the blanket. It's very cool that your bobble squares are so distinctive (in a good way!) that everyone can recognise them as yours :D
Woo hoo! This is so exciting... congrats many times over. Isn't it grand to have the beauty you created be rewarded in so many ways?!

Must.learn.to.crochet.
One square is pretty fast, I bet. And so colorful!
And you can probably get on a plane with a crochet hook. Knitting needle, hand sewing needles, scrapbook scissors - not so much.
Oh Emmitt, please make a how-to-crochet video soon, please!!
How khool!

That is so amazing. It must feel so good to know where your squares are and that they are helping someone in need!
I was very excited for you when I saw those and had to make sure you knew your crochet work was published! It's so cool!
Giving is such a joy. Thanks for sharing your ideas. This would go great with the birthday gift baskets that I also make.
