I've been working on this afghan for a few months now; the yarn was leftover from a temperature afghan I made in 2017. (2017! Can you believe it?!?!)
Last month I had two and a half color passes done:
Despite the fact that the yarn is running out (hooray!), I didn't get through the four passes I wanted to. But I have done three and a half passes! And yes, Bub felt he needed to be in the picture again. Probably for scale.
And in even better news: there's very little yarn left!
By our next check in -- June 15 -- I hope to be finished with the body of the blanket and well on the way to having a simple border stitched.

I've been watching this grow, and the more I see, the more I love it! It has such a 3D effect despite being effectively monochromatic. What are you planning for the border?
ReplyDeleteThanks Kate! I'm afraid the border will be exceedingly simple -- maybe a round or two of double crochet in black, followed by one round of the darkest grey I still have quite a bit of, and then finishing it off with black.
Deletethis is beautiful just as it is, can't wait to see it finished.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jean! Maybe by our next check-in!
DeleteThank you! Bub just likes to show off how lovely he is. :)
