Blanket Update

Hello there :)

Thought I'd share with you a picture of my blanket, taken last night. I haven't done anything on it today, so that's the most up to date picture there is!



And another for good luck. It really is worryingly long and small when it's viewed like that!! I'd rather not spread it out like that for a while!

Making the most of it

Morning :)



It's my last day of late shift today - thank god! - but that means that I probably won't be able to churn out as much as I have been. Started the orange one last night while watching Eragon, and finished the other two this morning before 11.30 :) I have a couple of balls of wool that are 10g or less, put a picture on my blog. The blue is all gone, but if you want I can send them to you? You should be able to get 2, maybe 3 squares out of them all. Let me know!

Today's Haul

Hey Blodyn,

So I thought I'd start us off! Here are the 4 squares I made today. I've got less than 1g of that blue left now, which is a shame because it's a gorgeous colour. It's a The Knitting Goddess mini skein, in Ocean. She sells it in a full 425m skein of 4-ply yarn too, which is brilliant news. It's now officially on my 'to buy' list! 


The third orange/purple/pink square underneath is also from The Knitting Goddess, but this time in Sunset. Also a really nice colour! 

I wound the pink skein of Colinette Jitterbug yarn I had from the Creative Pack into a ball earlier. I knit a square from it, and I think we may have a problem. It's a heavier 4-ply than anything else I've used in the blanket. See how it's thicker than the knitting goddess yarn?


I'm hoping it'll be okay. I knit that as a standalone square, but I'm going to knit one into the blanket tomorrow (hopefully) and then I'll let you know. I'm guessing that all the Jitterbug yarn will be heavier than what else we have. 

Sweet dreams, and happy knitting :)
