Ended up adding that third row of double crochet, but now...

I think I can safely say I'm done. All that's left to do is tie it off, weave in the tail, and then trim a few imperfections, & then it'll be complete.

Compare this to the blanket Without the border ^ and it really does look much fuller now.

It's *very* big, and it's very heavy, but that's its purpose. It's essentially a weighted blanket. But crocheted entirely by hand. By Me.

Hefty. It does take up a lot of space, but it folds up quite nicely. I enjoy how uniform the crochet pattern of it is.

And with how big the overall blanket is, I don't think the third row of double crochet border looks strange. In fact, I like the texture of it all together. Very uniform & wonderful to run my fingers along.
And, most notably, this entire thing was finished in exactly a week. I'll take that as a real accomplishment.
#speculation nation#crochet shit#dont mind the mess in my room lol. for i am a slob.#and now that i have finished this blanket. i will work on my infinite scarf thing.#and by that i mean it's not an infinite scarf. it's just going to be a really really long chain of 20 stitch rows treble crochet#i have a big ball of yarn and i just kinda wanna see how long i can make it lol#essentially a crochet 'project' that's just an excuse to Keep On Going.#u can see the ball of it peeking out from under the finished blanket. the teal and white thing#and you can see the start of the scarf-thing in the second to last picture. i was working on that last night.#ah scarf-things. my favorite thing to make. i dont even wear scarves. but i do like making long chains of crochet and Calling it a scarf.#i just like the feeling of crocheting. keeps my hands occupied. wonderful to do while watching things.#and thus the true purpose of the scarf-things: something for my hands to do while im watching shows.#truly the adhd delight.
