Well, it took about a week, but I finished one of the most difficult projects I've ever tackled!! I spent pretty much all day today putting the blanket together and getting rid of those crazy tails that had to be tucked in every which direction! I also didn't use nearly as much yarn as I thought I would....at least I know I can do a project like this rather quickly. I think if I worked nonstop--or close to it, I could make one of these in about 2 days...make the squares one day and put it together the next...but now that I've said that I'm sure I'll have to eat my words. lol. Here's the picts! :)
Each of the 4 different color blocks had 3 shades, I connect them together with the "middle color" of a different block to spread the color love!
Here's the shades of yellow....
Here's the shades of blue...
...and I did this one so I'd have a 4th set...
Since I used the "middle color" to put the individual squares together, I used the darkest color to put the big squares together, then I went around the entire blanket with the lightest colors...
Ta-da!
My hands hurt! Enjoy!!!
Much love.
Love it.
