I know, I know, I normally wouldn't make another blanket out of the same yarn, so soon. But with my daughter having two pregnant girlfriends, I really had no choice. The finished pastel rainbow star made it's way to Sara's house, for her to gift at baby shower next month.
I will admit to my heart skipping a beat, watching her caress the beautiful softness of the blanket, while asking if she will get one too when she has a baby. Of course she will! In the meantime, pastel rainbow #2 is nearly done. I wanted to do it a little differently than the usual one, so I made this one a circle. It has the exact same color progression, just not in the twelve pointed star.
This is what the whole thing looks like ^ , and here's the closer view:
In case you've noticed, I haven't written a whole lot in the last few days. I have not been feeling all that well. My legs hurt, it's hard to stand up and walk, at least at the beginning. Once I get moving, I'm usually OK. But I do feel like I've pulled muscles in the calves of both legs, so I'm like double limping. Strange, I know.
And, so you know, the circle afghan pattern is from the Lion Brand Yarn website, the free pattern section. It's the same pattern I used as the basis for my Jeep tire cover.
Very pretty. I hope your legs are better. Do you know the cause? Don't look on the internet unless you want to spend hours inventing anxiety for yourself.
ReplyDeleteI know better, now, about looking on the internet. I have a dark line running up my thumbnail, I looked that up, BIG mistake. I called my friend in a panic telling her I have cancer in my thumb. I won't be doing that again! And thanks for the compliment on the blanket!
