After the giant cats of last week, these are a dainty change of pace.
The un-named baby blanket is complete. It measures 30 inches x 40 inches. Cascade 220 Superwash purchased online from Wool-tyme in Ottawa. (Great service!) 4.5 mm needles. I started this project in late March with a pretty vague idea of where I wanted to end up. I am unusually happy with the end result.
And for anyone who might be curious, here's what the back of those blocks looks like. Those embroidery stitches get swallowed up in the worsted weight wool, and it is surprisingly neat back there.
It is time to move on to a new project, and it's going to be fun!!
Your blanket is perfect. All your hard work has really paid off. Cookies and tea are definitely needed to celebrate the big finish.
ReplyDeleteI am clapping and cheering!
A really fast run to the finish line,,, and another in the wings. This is so lovely, and will be happily used for a long, long time.
ReplyDeleteSo lovely, Cheryl (it's hip to be "square" LOL). Those cookies actually look too pretty to eat :( Though I probably would anyway!
