Onward, onward

 


I've made progress on my blanket. It's now at the stage where I aim to get to a corner in a session, rather than complete a round. Actually, there's no earthly reason I should get to a corner or complete a round, it's fine to stop in the middle! Unlike knitting, where it is usually a good idea to finish a row. We were visiting my grandparents once and when Jack said it was time to go, I said sure, as soon as I've finished knitting this row. My grandfather did laugh, said that was the story of his life.

  1. Aren't we all odd. I'm the same. I hate it when the rounds keep getting bigger don't you.

  2. I love the colors! Like you, I prefer stopping at the end of a row or rounding a corner. Somehow it makes more sense!

  3. I'm afraid I set targets for myself all the time too, Jane!!! It's looking gorgeous. Just love the colours.

  4. Lovely!!! I find that crafters seem to have certain common underlying traits and knitting to end of round/row seems to be one of them ;-D

  6. Lovely blanket, I did have a laugh, I often say that to my husband when I am tatting and doing a ring, I like to close a ring before I finish and leave it, I think my Dad could have related to that as well with both my mum and I knitting.
