So happy to have finished this awesome blanket - one of my favs!
I love granny square blankets - mainly because you can crochet the granny squares wherever you go without having to lug a giant blanket around with you! I also really enjoy putting the blanket together at the end, and with this one I put a lot of the crosses together before I started doing the final arrangements. The worst part of a blanket for me is always the threading in of the ends! Such a relief when that is done.
I love the fact you could do this same blanket in any colours, or even a black & white or grey & black version would look awesome.
Looking forward to getting on with a few other crafts on my to do list, but this has been such a fun blanket to make. I'd totally recommend this pattern to anyone, even to crochet newbies!

ReplyDeleteNo Mika - just random!
DeleteDear Kristy, re your daughter's love of penguins. She might like this year's John Lewis Christmas advert. Here is a link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iccscUFY860
ReplyDeleteTheir adverts are much loved here in the UK. Another one to look for is from 2012. No penguins in that one mind, but a snow man and snow woman. Love the throw you've made. Best wishes, Emma
