Blankie Saga continues

As our many months of hard work turned to different colors. Burt tagged himself in as the complimentary orange guy when the orange stripe got going. Mellie did spend a lot of time with me during the green rows. The seasons were changing and Mellie no longer needed me for warmth and support. What it is hard moving sometimes you just need to sit under a chair instead of on a lap. 


Burt however believes no knitting project should be left unsupervised. Burt is the very definition of hard worker when it comes to lap sitting and supervising. Sometimes he can multitask and bathe at the same time and others he concentrates on looking deep into your soul and convincing you that we should buy a house.


He may have even promised me a room for yarn again. We just have to find the right house...



 Ginormous! The word you are searching for is ginormous.



Burt stayed buckled in for the burgundy row also, thank goodness. This is turning into quite the effort and I need all the support I can get. 


No wait this is ginormous. What was I thinking a bit ago? 


I was thinking only two more colors to go!!!!


No one wants to sit on laps in this heat. You are on your own Momma!!!

I am only half a side away from being done with the navy blue yarn. I will be so excited to be able to finish this and give it away. Maybe then I can finish up a few other things that I have been neglecting in favor of getting this one in only a year.


Mellie thinks the best way to wrap up this installment of the saga is her glamor shot.
I agree.

  1. I applaud your tenacity in knitting such a warm blanket in hot weather! If anything, it’ll motivate you to get it done so that you can get it off your lap! It is so pretty!
