Blanket progress report: Halfway?


It's getting harder to photograph my blanket; as you can see, it's now wider than a chair. Since this is a vertical-stripe blanket, you're looking at the width here. I think I'm about halfway. I don't really have a plan, though, so I'll probably just keep going until I run out of yarn. Will it be a throw for the couch or a cover for the queen-sized bed? We'll see!

It's also hard to photograph because the colours just don't show up correctly. They look washed out in the photo. Trust me, the colours are richer.

And here's a completely unrelated link, for my friend Jeanie: Technorati-tagged images of cupcakes. Hi, Jeanie!

Looks like a great dissertation writing blanket. Warm and cosy and stimulating of mind.

The double crochet lines are looking super cool at this point, rich colors or not.

I love the colors. Reminds me of a bag of jelly beans.
