craftdaft since 1970. talking too much since 1972 or so.
Curve of Many Colours – 1st border finished!
Being a masochist, I decided to do two borders on this blanket – one log-cabin style, and one mitered. To be quite honest, I’m getting tired of this project but must finish it and the yarn I started with.
I must admit, I was not sure I would like the curve of many colours, but I really do. It looks great. I like the idea of one, but the giant item seems like too much. Maybe at this time next year. (a balmy 8F -13C) It would be a good snuggle knit.
Thanks for your comments! It has been a great “snuggle knit”… for this reason I will continue (the weather being about as balmy here as it is wherever Mary Lou is. I would NOT want to be knitting it in the warmer weather.
If I were to do the pattern again, I would probably go two or three colours – more stark. But this was a GREAT stashbuster!
That truly is the most gorgeous blanket I have EVER seen! The color combinations are amazing – you aren’t really going to let anyone use it are you? lol

Very nice. It’s like a modernistic painting!

I love it! every time I look at your latest progress I think, “I have GOT to make that!!” Thanks for sharing your photos!!
Very nice, I’ve seen this idea in a sweater but I think it’s much better as a blanket. You have very nice colour sense.

Actually, DH used it last night. It got rave reviews! (although it was tempting to laminate it and put up up on a wall or something…!)
