Back to a long term WIP


I've been making more of the patches for this long term WIP blanket as mentioned on a post last year http://lizsknitting.blogspot.com/2008/10/my-current-wip.html . I'm now on my 36th patch. I figure I need 64 patches for the size I'm making (they are 34cm each)...as much as I love making it, I get bored after a while...in fact I'd forgotten about it until I got fed up of making the fluffy scarves half way through the 4th one!
Since picking this up again Saturday evening I've made almost 4 patches...let's see how far I get before moving on again.....lol

  3. Thanks guys!!

    I'll try to take a photo tomorrow of how it looks so far. I'm literally using oddments for this blanket but I think next time I'll buy in enough yarn in certain colours and plan how I want it to look.

  4. Teeheee, first thing which came to mind when I saw that picture was.......... FIMBLES, lolol. I am obviously watching too much children's tv with my granddaughter.
    I think it is a great project and the blanket will look fabulous when its finished. Very funky indeed. So please hurry up and finish it!
