Notes

This will be made of leftover yarns from projects, handspun and hand dyed yarn.

10/31 Started the first square so far so good. Completed 4 squares while watching Friday night sci-fi.

11/8 On my 11th square. Not completely happy with my results so far because the squares are varied in size. I’m going to let it go and remind myself that this is a stashbusting and memory blanket.

12/20 Changed my mind I frogged it all and have started over.

12/21 The current photos shows what I have completed so far. I am much happier with it.

12/23 22 almost 23 squares completed. I’m 1/4 done if all I want is a lap blanket. I figure I can just keeping adding stash until I have a queen size blanket if I want.

4/22 A crazy time to bring this out of hibernation. Maybe I will get a few squares done on it before it gets too hot.

5/4 I’ve completed about 3 squares so far.

5/13 Three more squares give or take. It’s 9 squares wide right now and needs about 7 more for queen size bed.

5/25 It’s hot again so it’s time to put this away. 64 blocks total so far.

5/24/11 About time to put it away again. Needs about 6 more rows maybe 7.

9/28 Time to work on it again.

10/7 Almost finished with Row 14. Want a total of 18 rows and plan to add one vertical row as well.

10/10 Finished up with row 15. Need 4 more rows maybe 5 rows so 20 rows total.

10/18 Starting on row 18 for one side then need 2 more on another side. So 52 more squares needed. Finished 3 so far.

Calling it done although there are over 200 ends to weave in.
