look at her!!! she's gorgeous!!!

here is the finished blanket that I've been working on non-stop for the last 2 weeks straight! it was a secret santa gift for my coworker :) it's made in the colors of the Dallas Cowboys since that's the team they like (alternatively; it's still a pretty Christmas-y color pallete! very "winter snow" themed!)

this is also my first time making a blanket and MAN. do not try to make a throw-sized blanket in 2 weeks it is NOT A GOOD IDEA. especially if you've never made one before. i am currently so sick and tired of the granny stitch that it's not even funny anymore.

it is a 55in square, so actually a little bigger than I meant for it to be! and so soft once I washed it. i absolutely need to make myself a blanket now.

#this is also literally like. the 4th thing I've ever actually crocheted.#I've made. in order: a scarf (when i was ~8yo). a hat. my cardigan (unfinshed). and this blanket.#i loved working on it (big project very satisfying to hold excited seeing it come together)#but also i hated working on it (big project gift anxiety small timeframe to finish)#progress photos to come later (after i get off work)#crochet #shh ac
