Project #16 - Cosy Knitted Blanket

So this is what I did all winter long.

I finished this blanket about two month ago, but never came round to post it. But now is the time.

I went to shop for colours and ended up with this:

(While knitting I had to add a seventh colour because they run out of some other colours and I couldn´t stopp knitting until the new order arrived...)

At home a created this sheet, just to have simple plan to follow and know what will be next.

The nummbers are the amount of rows each colour block had

And then I started to knit... (30 stiches, between 26 to 28 rows in each colour; I didn´t count while knitting my first string, so the numbers were really helpful...)

And knit...

And knit...

  

And knit...

Someone really enjoyed my work while still in progress...

And then my plan was complete! Whohoooo!
But since the knitting was really wobbly I added a crochted boarder all around. Just to simply rows all around. I used all the little leftovers I had kept, so it turned out really colourful.

I really love the texture of the blanket now, and it really fells cozy and comfy, but the wool is not that wooly and hot, so it don´t has to went to the closet while summer but still is in use on cooler summer evenings or rainy days.

Someone still loves it very much :)
