What a beautiful blanket! So much time and effort; I am really impressed with your stick-to-it attitude.

You already know I love your blanket.

I’m not sure whether this will make you feel better or worse about your achievement but you have actually knitted twice as many stitches as you think you have. The squares are 66 stitches by 66 ridges, which means 132 rows!

Even though the figures are wrong, I just love your calculations. It’s part of what our teaching is all about. If you scroll down on this page http://www.woollythoughts.com/schools/tynedale.html you can see Equal Parts being used in a Maths lesson, by a friend of ours.

Weird about all those underweight skeins.

Little Grump looked really good in that blanket. To be brutally honest, I don’t think you will ever work up the courage to knit it again. And it is really huge for a baby.

Hmmmm, could you find a smaller, faster, lovely pattern to knit for the baby and leave LG wrapped in this one? If you could even find the inspiration to knit this one again in six or 9 squares, it would still be large for a baby. Or there is the Log Cabin from Mason Dixon. Kaye is doing a lovely version right now. http://www.masondixonknitting.com/
