Ok, well let's get right to it. The Tunisian Squares blanket. A lot has developed on this since last week. I got all the squares attached and ends sewn in. It just needs a border now. However. My heart is broken with this. Not only does it look like crap, it is TINY. There is no way I can give this to theonlyboyfriend's family. And now there is not enough time to make another blanket for them before Christmas. I am beyond frustrated and hurt over this. I spent 4 MONTHS on this stupid thing. And here's what I have:
It's lumpy, the squares are different sizes so they did not come together well. (And I followed the pattern EXACTLY and even used the suggested yarn) I did a shit job on the seams anyway. I got the tip of my foot in there for size comparison. It's barely big enough to be a baby blanket. I'm just so annoyed. I'm gonna slap a border on it anyway and give it to charity. (In a week or so, this blanket needs to sit in the corner and think about what it did for awhile) Ugh.
Well, since I had some yarn bits leftover from this, I wound another magic ball and started back in on the Ugly Blanket. Ta-Da!!
I'm getting there with this!! Found some other scrap yarn I wanted to get rid of, so I'll use that too and all that might be almost enough to finish this guy!
And lastly, I was gifted some GORGEOUS Berroco Vintage (my favorite!) in theonlyboyfriends favorite colors so I'm making him a nice scarf for fall.
Just basic DC with a drop stitch every 5 stitches, alternating rows.
That's what I have going now. I need to start thinking of more projects, I have a vacation coming up soon and need things to work on! Between naps anyway.
I hope everyone is well. Much love!
Looks complicated!
