I've finally finished Bill's blanket! It was a way to use up spare yarn, and I didn't think I'd be through any time soon. But I finished a row on it yesterday and decided to put it on the bed to check the size. Which is when we realized that it's big enough already. So, I tied off the row and called it done.
Otter took the pictures, the first one doesn't really show the colors right. I'm not sure what setting she had the camera on. It does have some yellow, but there are a lot of blues, greens, pinks and reds as well as some browns and a small amount of orange and camo colors.
It's a lot of different colors and many rows consist of multiple color/yarn changes.
This is a close-up of some of the stitches.
And this is the reason we had to hurry and take the picture, which didn't leave Otter enough time to adjust the settings! Those are my feet in the background, but one beagle foot was already on the edge of the blanket.
It's triple stitch, and 55 rows. It fits on the top of our king-sized bed and hangs over the side just a bit. I have no idea how much yarn is in the blanket, but it's literally miles. I really enjoyed this project. I think I started it last spring or early summer and it's been added to as I would finish up a project and have a small amount of yarn left.
