Thank you - I rather like doing a monthly post, because it reminds me just what I have done.

I'm not sure how many squares will be needed for the throw. I'll knit some and then see what they look like and add some more until I've reached the number I need for the bed.

I like the penguin card - it's going to my husband, so I shall get to see it. The winter scene will have Santa in his sleigh and is destined for The Daughter.
