back from maine, warm again

no end in sight...

pikachu and the gang approve!

Hello! I have missed posting pictures, but have worked pretty steadily on the blankie. I fixed some abnormalities with the ending edge, and am thinking about doing some sort of edging around the whole thing after it's done, just to pull everything together. what are you all doing about the edges?
Enjoy the photos!

I really like your colors. They make me want to take a nap...

I've also been thinking about an edging. I was hoping to just crochet over all the loose threads at the ends, rather than weaving them all in--it'll be easier that way, I think. I guess I'm just going to go with one of the colors that I really liked for an edge--or something more muted, I'm not sure. And a simple stitch, just single crochet, nothing too fancy.

p.s.: what a cheerful, sweet blankie!

thanks! I'm weaving my ends in, but the sides still look a bit junky.

My sides are looking okay. Okay except for the nasty fringe of the yarn bits that need to be tucked in. I may do that soon, even though I am nowear near done. Just so that the working yarn doesn't keep tangling in that mess.

I think I will edge the sides with the first color I started with. I plan to have the last stripe the same color as the first. Hope that makes sense. Very nice colors, BTW.
