1970s crochet blanket

I finished the blanket that I made for my mom! It took a school semester from start to finish.

Why is it taking me so long to finish this blanket? Is it because I decided to make it so big? Or is it because it’s big enough already that I could actually sleep under it right now?

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.

one finished square, one wip, because i don’t know what color to finish with for the second square… feel free to leave me suggestions in the notes!

as per usual, done with a 3.5 mm hook, added the splendid serendipity border, and yarn and pattern details under the read more :)

square 1: Pennywise by Diana Krenz (free), despite my dislike for the fictional character, this is a lovely pattern. :) i think i added some front post stitches somewhere, but otherwise this pattern is unchanged.

yarn: if i’m not mistaken, entirely Lana Grossa Cotonella 002. cut off some of the gradient from gray to pink in between, to get the clean magenta and red border which i find really striking!

square 2: Gabriel by Diana Krenz (not a free pattern). Added a barely visible round of slip stitches before squaring up, because i thought the circle was too pretty not to be subtly highlighted. :)

yarn: Lana Grossa Cotonella 005 until squaring up, and then 008. The maroon border was done with a yarn i bought in a spanish dollar store — Melissa Platinum Cotton (100% cotton) in color Piri 8

I am starting on another afghan for a Christmas present! It is very similar to the last blanket I was making. Look in my previous posts for the link to a similar pattern :)

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.

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
