Notes

well my son is complaining that it dosen’t cover his feet. it’s suppose to be for the truck not the bed, anyways looks like i’ll be adding more to this, now to decide, do i do another set of charts,(if i can remember how i did it), or do i just do solid color.concedering it’s getting warm and menapause is setting in he may have to wait till fall for the fix, 40 degrees and window open still sweating big heavy blanket none of these go together!!! crap

will post finished pic tonight after i measure it.
holy crap i’m binding off, YEAH pic soon
first time making doubleknit this big, i hate the colors but i’m trying to use up alot of my stash, i’ve had to glue my needle 2 times already.i’ve never had that happen before, the plastic pulls out of the needle. my cast on is 190 of each color,380 total, i hope that will be big enough, my son will be going to collage and i told him everyone needs to have some kind of blanket in their truck, just in case you get stranded. i think i bit off more than i can chew with this one i really hope i finish, before he does.
so far 2 skeins each color
5/22-1 more skein each color
5/30-ran out of the gold yarn
6/13-finally went to store, now i can continue
7/26-ripped out 2 rows, i did them backwards, ripping out doubleknit takes longer than working it
really hard to get pics when your using a circular needle. started another blue skein.
almost there
there is no end to this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i think i’m loosing it
