    Great project for Va. Tech – feels good to be able to help somehow. Some of my group are making squares. What size knit and/or crochet needles do you suggest, and how many stitches to cast on or chain to start with to get the 8″? Please respond to e-mail above. Thanx.

    Would like to have pattern for the Hokie Bird – also, a pattern for the VT Logo – I am the mother of a 1992 English Graduate of VT and sadly I would like to be a part of this – I am in, I am already knitting away the minutes – My heart goes out to all the victims and their families – God’s strength to all…
