Project #3!
LOVE!!!! this blanket!
This was my favorite project so far, even though there was some stress with adding my own border to the pattern. I love the yarn, love the ease, love the finished product. It was so super soft; I'm thinking of making one for myself. It was a huge hit at the baby shower I presented it at.
Instead of the listed colors, I went with coconut, pistachio, aqua mist, soft blue, and blue heather. It was all knit, EXCEPT:
After cast on and before cast off, 2x2 rib stitch 6 rows of the end colors in addition to the regular stitches.
2x2 rib stitch 2 ribs (k2p2k2p2) on each end of each row.
I cast on 100 stitches.
So what do I do with myself now while I watch bad reality tv?? Someone else needs to get pregnant!

People with kids clearly are weird
Hello,
I'm John.
I date younger girls -- older folkshave far too much baggage for me. I have never marrried nor have kids, so I'm fairly normal. I really enjoyed your profile and pics, and I'd like to take you out.
Granted I'm on a free dating site...but what about my profile could possibly scream "looking for guy 20 years my senior who thinks he's normal because he isn't married.

Blanket #2!
Each time I finish a project, I think I'll never be as proud of anything again in my life. This one was a doozy. The pattern seemed simple...basically really big ribbing. Knit 6, purl 6. I added more colors and changed the yarn to Vanna's Choice to use up some old stash. It took FOREVER though. At one point I timed 8 minutes per row. I don't know why it was so tedious, but once I was done I was pretty happy because it's HUGE. It seemed to quadruple in size once I washed and blocked it.
Buster couldn't stay away
