Blankie mania has hit me and I've been casting on little 4" diagonal squares all week!!! Alas, I'm running out of DK wool scraps and will be putting it down today while waiting for 2 mixed bags of Mission Falls 1828 mill ends I won at eBay to arrive. There's at least 800 gms of DK superwash there, enough to feed this blankie obsession. I plan to finish it by September, in time for the English winter.
The pattern is an adaptation of Sellykang's sock yarn blankie
The reverse side is surprising neat too, but just look at..the ends.... the ends......
I'm using short 4mm needles instead of DPNs or Circulars. They're probably stretching the stitches a little but these 'plastic learner' straights seems just perfect for the 31 sts. Thanks Annie!
Meantime, here's what's getting cast on today...
