The Crochet blanket that grew and grew.

The Crochet blanket that grew and grew.
From the gray stripe up........

This was a bed spread that I made last year and had decided not to go to the top of the bed because as every knitter knows there projects lone term grow.  No water required.

But of course it grew side ways but the length ways growth I had allowed for nothing, it was either ears or feet (warm)

DK yarn and I used two balls at once to get the thickness.  It's beautifully warm and you feel wrapped in comfort and a little flattened by its weight.

Nearly there..........

Crochet from my bed, no reading time but nightly knit time, the blanket was just to big and heavy to carry around so I commenced crochet from my bed with Rich and guitar to keep me company.;-)

Completed

To the top the thick green band, completes my super huge crochet blanket.  Roughly 210 stitch's across.  (lose count easily a little monotonous but worth it)
