Still Plugging Along on the Forever Blanket!

Hello friends! I have to report I'm actually proud of myself for staying focused on this project for so long, lol. I have been working on the Forever Blanket for yearrrrrrrrrrrrrrs, because it's one of those projects I would work on for a while, put down for ages, pick back up again, etc.

I think because I laid it all out and I can see that the end is relatively near, I am motivated to try and finish it finally!

Yuan is helping me model the pieces all laid out on the floor (he's such a good helper ^_^). The yellow are the newest sections; I think the brown and white are the ones I did before that.

The beautiful model

I am working on another yellow piece that will fit under the brown and white to the side of the turquoise and brown.

I was happy to remember that I had the yellow yarn, because I had ordered it for Epona's hair a while back and I had a lot of extra because I had to order a minimum of 3 skeins online.

The whole blanket is double stranded, worsted weight acrylic yarn on size 7 needles, completely knit stitch, so it's super heavy and thick. I can't wait to be warm under this blanket on a cold day. :)

Thanks for reading and wish me good completion luck! 💜

Blanket that would have found some good use already is still staying in the work in progress stage for years 😒... Pls try and complete it, we are waiting to assist you in using it this winter 🤗😂😂...

Well done dear
I possibly have some project in stock like that for years too
Sometimes I feel motivated to do it other times I feel just lazy and move on to the next project.

Yes, I would get distracted and work on something else a lot. So I'm glad I've been staying focused of late!

The famous Forever Projects :))
It is actually really close to an end, time will show, but when this time comes I am sure it is going to be rewarding (especially if it ends during wintertime :)
The helper is such a beauty!
