Back when this blanket was in its “fancy lollipop” stage, there were a few doubters out there who couldn’t imagine how the lollipop would ever transform into a blanket. It’s still more blob than blanket, but today I made a point to spread it out a little (the books are earning their keep in this photo for a change) so you could see the pattern. In good light it is actually quite nice. Over the next few weeks, as the blanket gets longer (barring a knitting catastrophe), it will be easier to see the pattern.
I’ve read the beginnings of both of the books whose corners are visible in this photo: Shobha Rao’s An Unrestored Woman and Tessa Hadley’s The Master Bedroom. I am still finishing End Zone, but I’ll be reading these two soon.
Happy Wednesday!

It’s looking great!
Thanks!
Looking good! Look forward to hearing about those books.
Thanks! I read multiple books at once, so there’s no knowing for sure how long I’ll take to finish and review them, but I’ll definitely post my thoughts.
It may be a bit of a blob but it’s a darn pretty one with all that green!
Thanks – I love working with it. The yarn is super soft too.
This will be a very pretty blanket – love the yarn!
Thanks!
Lovely! The color is so soothing.

Oh I live the blanket, both colour and pattern! Good choice!
Thanks!
