all striped out.

sunday night, i put the last of the edge on my granny stripe blanket!



it's DONE!

a little later than i'd hoped, but still, within the month...



the edge is made up of granny clusters, going around the edge entirely, rather than just back and forth like the body of the blanket...



oh, and some stats: this blankie weighs in at 3.1kgs. that's almost 16x200g balls of wool! and at $12.50 a pop, this blankie, like all the others that i've made, hasn't come cheap!
it has however, given me HOURS of entertainment and should last us for years and years.
money well spent? i think so!!



and it already has a big fan! pretty sure this guy spent all day yesterday, snoozing on it while i was working.
it's a nice life huh?



ravelry deets.

I remember seeing just a small strip of this. It has turned out beautiful. And it's still cool enough to be sleeping under a lovely woolly blanket. Enjoy
