Binxy is helping me pick out colors for each block. I'm putting a little more thought into the color choices for this row. My random choices all seemed to be rather similar.
I haven't worked on my knitting. I want to go back to the yarn shop and ask for some help. I'm making a cowl. My stitches are tight and I'm afraid it won't fit over my big head.
Second week of YOP is off to a good start!
Oh I love your granny Afghan gorgeous colours, love the kitty too.

ReplyDeleteYour cat's like, eat your heart out because my neutral print fur is rockin' it on this Granny Square blanket! This is a wonderful blanket, BTW.

ReplyDeleteYour granny blanket is adorable and obviously, by Binxy's opinion, very comfortable too. :-)
ReplyDeleteAwww, sweet kitty and he looks great on your granny-gan. I love those bright colors too.

ReplyDeleteLove your helper. Picking colours always slows me done. When my honorary granddaughters come over they help me.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful blanket. Sweet kitty. :)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous blanket!!!
ReplyDeleteI love your profile where you state "and sometimes I finish"...that's me also! LOL! I adore your granny square blanket....gorgeous! I'm making a giant granny square but small (oxymoron). I love having a project that is memorized so you can just pick it up and get on with it. Did you use Join As You Go method? I haven't tried that yet but I would like to when I do my next crocheted blanket. How big is it? How long did it take? Congrats! You're near the finish line now! I am a blanket fiend...I always have one going along with socks. Good for you!
ReplyDeleteI started this blanket several years ago. I only had about four rows finished when I decided it was time to finish it. I made it a top priority at the beginning of the year. I've had several breaks and a few other projects since the first of the year and I'm very slow. I don't know the exact size but it is fourteen squares on one side by twelve squares on the other. I've been sewing the squares together. I haven't made a join as you go blanket. The next blanket I make will be a continuous row type. This has been fun but I'm ready to move on to something else.
DeleteWow, look at that blanket - it's gorgeous and so nearly finished. Hope the shop can help with the cowl, or perhaps you can turn it into a different style.

ReplyDeleteLove the blanket and it will be finished very soon. Hope you get help with your cowl as well so you can wear it :)
ReplyDeleteI am liking the white border alot, it really brings out the bright zingy colours. Good luck with your cowl and I hope you get the help you need.
ReplyDeleteBinxy looks like she has some very decided ideas about things! Funny, when I make "random" yarn choices they tend to end up very organized too. Control issues for me!
ReplyDeleteI hope your yarn store folks are able to help out. It's no fun when projects don't fit!
Binxy is doing a great job there as Comfort Assessor. She looks pleased with it... yep, it passed the test.
ReplyDeleteIt's a fabulous blanket. Love your random colours.
