160ct2022 finished row 43, just 5 more rows until chart 2 starts!
Love how quick this works, although I have frogged some rows several time due to not counting correctly..

Blanket will be 224 rows, so already 20% done in just a few sittings over 6 days.
Nerdy stats coming up: avg of 43/6 = approximately 7 rows finished per day.
I will approximately need 224/7 = 32 sittings to finish the main part without border.
If I can crochet every night and finish 7 rows, the main part should be done by mid November and blanket including border could be finished end November/ beginning of December.

Measurements now are
100 cm wide, 25.5 cm high
1 main color stripe is 10 cm high (18 rows)

Finished row 56 tonight.
Had to frog a few rows twice because I misplaced the first stitch and only discovered when I was working next black row..
Still working with the red.

Next color change will be r61 and will be in Ssdk color spice
25% on my way, 8 days after starting

19-10-2022

Finished r 61, in Stylecraft special dk color spice.
It is slightly thinner so I will need to keep an eye on the measurements/ gauge.
I will continue with same black yarn as pattern color.

23-10-2022

Finished r 76
Pattern is not difficult but you need to count… had to rip a few rows back again, luckily just partially.
I will do row 77 in spice orange, r 78 in black for the pattern and then it is time to switch background color again.

I planned the burgundy red Royal from Zeeman for this part, but could also do the light pink “oudroze” first, then back to dark.

Continuing my queen
For burgundy I had no yarn in project basket so I grabbed stylecraft special dk in claret and I believe it is a perfect match.

21-02-2023

Finished r95 in claret red (burgundy )

Continued from r97. for middle part with stylecraft special dk in petrol for a nice contrast.

R97-127 in petrol/teal and black

R129-145 in claret red ssdk and black

10-03-2023

Finished row 157, working on the mirrored colors from the middle. This part is the spice color

28-03-2023

Just finished r 197 in bright orange.
Until 203, where i will switch to thr bright yellow.
I just noticed the bottom 3 rows are brighter then the rest so will try to mirror that look.
