Artist's Comments

This past week I knitted this blanket using 'man colors' for my uncle. It took me about 4 days pretty much non-stop, thanks to lots of idle time just being in the living room with my family for Thanksgiving.

MATERIALS:
-4 balls of Lion Brand Homespun yarn
-Size 11 needles
-LOVE

PATTERN:
You knit this blanket diagonally
-Cast on 5 stitches. Knit 1 row.
-Next row Knit 3, yarn over, knit till end of row
-I continued this every row untill I ran out of yarn on my second ball of yarn. I have no idea how many stiches were on there...probably close to 150 or something.
-Decrease now: Knit 2, k 2 togeather, yo, k2tog, k to end of row
-Do that for every row till you get to 7 sitches on your needle. Then you Knit 2, k2tog, k2tog, k to end of row.
-Cast off.

Nicely done and one question which does bother me why [Insert Title Here] of DOOM? All the time?

But apart from that I like it.

WO WA WEE WA WOOOoOooo~~~
Man colors? Very funny. . . made me giggle. :giggle:

For what it's worth - It would be easier for me to give advanced critique if I could see a close up of your afghan. Generally I look for evenness of stitches, uniformity in row height, etc. But, from what I see, the afghan looks great.

I don't know why all knitted stuff is OF DOOM. It started a while ago and I felt like continuing the OF DOOM. I guess I'm retarded. =D

i made one following your pattern, only on size 7 needles.
took me forever!
i started it about a year ago, left it about 1/3 done, found it last week, knitted nonstop for 5 days, and wow. i ended up with blister/calluses on my fingers and they itch a lot haha. but it was a fun project.

thanks for sharing your pattern!

This pattern is pretty much like one I found on LionBrand.com, but I changed it a bit. I should of linked to it since it wasn't totally my idea, but whatever. I'm happy I could inspire you and happy you finished your blanket. =D
