My first Granny Stripe Blanket

I have not posted for a while a I have been making my first Granny Stripe Blanket from the tutorial over at Attic24.


What started off as just a little sample grew into a blanket that will nearly cover a double bed and will do once I have added to it. I did cast off and called it done but after thinking about it for a week I decided to add more rows so that it would fit our bed for the winter.

  3. Beautiful! I hope to start one after the holidays (too busy with making gifts until then). Although, I don't quite "get" the stitch, even after reading the tutorial on Attic -- I'll have to re-read a few times.
