~ the neverending blanket ~

31 March 2006

this is the blanket that i started almost a month ago:

it was going to be a blanket for our queen bed. but, two weeks ago, seeing how slow the pace in finishing it, i’ve changed my mind and decided to make it single bed size.

this week, i found out that i made a pattern mistake and had to take apart 5 diagonal rows. frustrated, i was thinking to reduce the size to a throw for the couch. i’m getting more and more impatient and the blanket is getting smaller and smaller…

and this is Ms. Koda, who always need to sniff the camera or any object around her…

Wow! That’s pretty.

I’m in the midst of crocheting a baby blanket. It’s difficult already even when I’m only using SC… well done! :-)

whoa, SC for a whole blanket? that’s a lot of work!

Yeah, I only realise it’s a lot of work….when I’m halfway through it. *egad* But that is what the book called for…..

I’m roughly at 20cm in length now. It calls for at least 115cm. heh.

Anyway, a throw for the couch is actually not a bad idea for yours. However it will turn out, it’s very pretty. I love the flower pattern. :-)
