I have finished my crochet blanket at last. I started off to do it all in granny squares then saw something similar on a craft site and decided to mix the grannies with 'rounds'
At one stage it was taking me a whole evening to go round once!!
It's going to keep us very warm this winter and is heavy.. DH said something about the colours being in your face!! Of course they are, they are meant to be bright and colourful.. I love it.
And this shows rhe picot edging
Crocheting is so relaxing and the beauty of it there is only one stitch to drop!!
So this evening I am back to stitching for a change, and I have plenty to chose from..

It's gorgeous! You did a great job.
Beautiful!!
Beautiful blanket, and such even stitching! I wish some day I could crochet so neatly and evenly. Very impressive!
Gorgeous blanket. I know I felt the same way you do when I made my blanket a couple years ago. It truly is a wonderful way to relax and such beauty comes from it too. I only put my crotch hook down when I have my cross stitching needle in my hand LOL
The blanket is beautiful Chris!
You'll be nice and cosy snuggled under that in the winter months, well done Chris, it's beautiful and yes, so bright and colourful too.
Very beautiful blanket. And I love your colors.
Thank you for your lovely comments on my blog, I am so pleased you like it. The "moon and back" is a freebie from Cyberstitches. If you search for "moon" in Freebies you should find it, any problems let me know and I could e-mail the chart to you. Take care. xxx
What a beauty of a crochet blanket. I can hear the excitement of a finish all the way across the pond;-) LOL. Simply beautiful.

I hopped here from somewhere...can't remember, but I bookmarked you and came back...lovely blog.
Wonderful! Well done
I love it, what a wonderful colours and pattern, you are going so fast, it would take me at least a year. sunny kisses from Rio, Alice
Oh my...that is so gorgeous. The colours look amazing together. I'm afraid I would snuggle down under it and not come out until summer!
So gorgeous!
I wish I could do a big project such as that. But as of now, I can't.
And it isn't cold in my country...we only have 2 seasons: rain and shine.
But that is beautiful, girl!

I want this blanket so much! It looks gorgeous ... I am a stitcher and knitter, so tend to struggle with crochet. Need to try some granny squares sometime, so far only managed flowers and chains. It is gorgeous Well done!
