#Afghan Blankets

Realized I never posted this here!

It took two years, but I made the Annie's Cathedral Rose Window Afghan! First time I made a full blanket, really love it!

This blanket is a monster. I had no idea how big it was going to turn out. This is it on a king sized bed. Not the best photo but I was so excited to finish it I just had to share. Tomorrow, assuming the weather is good for it, I'll get some better photos in the sun.

Knit this square yesterday, the yellow is that little skein of handspun hampshire that I dyed in the second round of exhaust. I got pretty far on an acrylic garter stitch scrap blanket à few years ago, before realizing I hate acrylic and have less than no use for a blanket made of the stuff. But man, the squares looked really nice. This blanket is stockinette because I intended to practice flat colorwork, but I wish I'd just done garter stitch. I love how it looks a lot more. Anyway... the gray is some Jacob scrap. I like both sides, not sure which will be face up when I sew it on. I need to block a ton of them atm, just don't really enjoy it. (That is another benefit of garter stitch squares).

Also the bread. Just finished its first rise. It's a blend of bread flour, whole wheat, and rye. The rye was accidental, I was looking for either spelt or more whole wheat but it wasnt labeled and light in the basement was off, so I grabbed rye accidentally, and... eh. Also has toasted Pecans. Idk, all my bread is 'what if I tossed a bunch of random stuff in a bowl while having very thick brain fog ?' But it usually tastes pretty good.

Also, 3 rolags down. I'm taking a long time with them trying to get all the vm out, but I think it's actually working really well. We'll see.

Cathedral rose window Afghan in rainbow colors to compliment my stained glass window Afghan in the same color scheme.

I started this Afghan right after Christmas and worked on it off and on for 3 months before completion.

thought i would archive my crocheting progress where i can easily always look it up :3

this pattern is soooooooo. what the hell. almost done with it too only like 4/5 more rows to go i think!!! this is splendid serendipity by the loopy stitch and it’s just so gorgeous i am in love

so many new stitches i have never done before (popcorn, v, shell, front and back post stitches, bubble, and a bazillion clusters of various heights, and i am sure the last few rows will introduce even more)

important to note that the original pattern switches colors a bunch, and i am doing this all continuously without cutting the string ever lmao. this means i had to start new rows in funky unintended ways and these past three or four rows in completely different places than the tutorial/pattern actually does. because i’m silly and whatever

also it’s insane how my color changing yarn just almost perfectly matched for each round, i am in love (i am using Lang Yarns Merino+ Color Extrafine Superwash / No Mulesign, in color 926.0210 which is gorgeous but expensive so i am gonna try another square with some different yarn)

Made this patchwork blanket during the pandemic as a way to work through a lot of the scrap/extra yarn I had. I even flew across the country with my squares when I went to quarantine with my sister!

I realized I never posted about it since it wasn't very ~~aesthetic~~ but it has been such a good blanket for me since then that it seems like a shame not to share it! It is just warm enough to be comforting, but not so heavy that it makes me sweat outside of winter months

Pattern: Kraft-tanken-Patches

What if I made Corazon's shawl/poncho thing from that Log Collection illustration my next knitting project?? 👀

[fox-bright]

Getting there. This is through all but the last round of the first set(which is only sc and so doesn't add much height anyway). It is now two feet across.

Here's a couple of my older makes.

And the Cosmic CAL blanket (pattern by Helen Shrimpton/Crystals and Crochet):

Soft kitties, warm kitties:)

@dollsonmain posted this adorable crochet kitty blanket a while ago and I knew I had to make one:) Grabbed some colors and got to work.

Close up. The pattern is simple and works up quickly but it took me a long time to finish it as I ran out of yarn; silly me thought a skein of each was going to be enough lol. I couldn't find close enough color matches in store (most of my yarn is old stock people give me) but fortunately Sis was rearranging my yarn and discovered enough that I was able to complete it:)

It's a bit larger than I intended (I meant it to be more toddler sized). I couldn't decide on a border color so used each color on one side.

This is an adorable blanket and I can't wait to make more!

The color pooling blanket is done! Pictures ft. fluffy kitty:

The colors are so bright it kinda blows out the camera, but I’m quite pleased with how it turned out! (Much bigger than I intended, but I had fun!) 7ft x 5.5ft and Albus approved!
