Swappsies anyone?

There is a girl where I work who is VERY likely to have her second baby VERY early and during a general chat mentioned that she had no one to knit for her and that her first child (now 2) has never had a hand-knitted item. My colleagues seemed alarmed when I screeched 'What?!' Like she'd just admitted to beating him but really....it's just WRONG. I have these two pattern books for little babies and want to knit something in 4ply in a gender-neutral colour; white, yellow or turquoise. I was just planning a trip to a wool shop when I stopped and thought.....'I wonder?'

What I wondered was this;

Do any of you have some nice soft baby 4ply in the above mentioned colours that you might be prepared to swap? I have nearly a whole bale of 'non-tickle' lilac wool in 4ply and could swap this ball for ball or maybe there's something else you're needing that I might be able to help with.

If you're wondering why I'm doing this just glance back a couple of posts at my work room......see???
