Another blanket update

I am seriously behind in my blogging. Not that I have any rules that I stick to when it comes to the blog, rather that my folder of pictures ready to be posted on the blog is getting out of control. So for this posting you are going to get rather a lot of pictures.

Just for Kris, here are a few more snaps of the blanket. Next week, I will post the last letters as well as the finished pictures. How exciting is that?

I seriously debated doing the diamond edging for the blanket. Polly had suggested that I do a garter stitch border as that would save me a lot of time (I now know how much time it would have saved and trust me, it's a lot). But I decided that Brychan would be worth every second of the time invested in it and I went with the diamond edging.

Which was the right thing to do as it definately makes a difference. And now for a few letters.

And another

And again

Bored yet?

Still with me?

And the last one.

I have joined the Stick ya neck out knitalong. This knitalong is a little different in that we are all buying our own yarn and chosing our pattern and then sending it off to someone else who will knit it for us. I really like this idea as it means that you are bound to get something that you really like. In fact it's one less thing that I need to knit off my 'MUST KNIT' list!

Finally, I gave the blanket to Brychan at the weekend. As soon as I have worked my way down to the beginning of the alphabet, I shall be sharing pictures.
