#afghan blanket

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?

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.

She's finally done!

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.

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 :)

Giving up on this...

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)
