Why the lengthy name? Because it's earned it. It's quite the blanket and I've had the quite the journey making it.
Many mistakes. Many back-trackings. Many mishaps. The last straw? One of the colors I chose was DISCONTINUED. I had to scour the internet to find more. Thankfully, someone from Ravelry was willing to sell and ship me two skeins - more than enough to finish. I was elated, needless to say!
Believe it or not, I want to make another one, but not as big. I love this pattern - despite it’s up’s and down’s (no pun intended). Here’s the final break down:
Measures: 75”X80”
Time Spent: 124 days OR 4.13 months (off and on)
Number of Stitches: 40,432 stitches
Yardage: 5,360 yards OR 3.04 miles
Cost: DON’T ASK!!! =)
This project now holds the record as the largest item I have ever created. It fits nicely on our queen-sized bed.
