Got inspired by granny blanket I had seen on tv with really bright yarn and dark background, I opted for dark blue instead of black and most of the yarn I have used are odds and ends from my stash or leftovers from the Carousel Blanket. Really enjoyed doing the squares, relaxing without too much concentration but since the weather has got warmer the joining and edging have become a chore. It is mid-summers day and sweltering and I have been sewing in the ends with my feet in a tub of water - it's a hard life!

Have you tried the join as you go technique? I did it once, took a while perfecting it on triangles, but it saved a lot of time sewing with my arthriticy fingers. 😊
Again, beautiful colours. I think the navy will be less harsh too than had you used black as the pattern suggested.

This is a brilliant way to use up all the little balls in amassing in boxes under our guest bed. Must give it a try.
