It's a whopper...
You know when I said that doing 2 rows of my ripple blanket a day was a do-able goal? I don't think I mentioned that the blanket is over six feet wide! I think, on average, it has taken me about an hour and a quarter to do my daily quota, but I have managed it. I'm running out of yarn now and so in a couple more days I think I will have to put it back on the back burner until I can buy some more.
I am loving it though. This was the first time I had actually laid it out on my bed and it is now clear where this blanket is going to live. My bedroom is completely white so it will add an intense block of colourful snuggliness...
While it's in the WIP pile, there are a couple of other more manageable crochet projects that I'd really like to get done with the yarn I bought ages ago. Then I'll be ready for winter.
