Blanket Progress

Since the start of January I've been putting more effort into getting this blanket finished. I've been aiming to make at least one square a day but preferably two. This means I've made 70% of the squares I need

I'm aiming for a blanket that is 14 squares long and 10 squares wide. This means I've currently got 98 out of the 140 squares. I think today I'll definitely have to go for 2 more squares so I can reach 100 :-)

Of course even when the squares are completed I've still got to join them all together, weave in the ends from joining them together and make a border. Despite that though, it's nice to feel I'm getting closer.

    It is totally beautiful! The border is actually my favorite part of making a blanket. Can't wait to see what you do with yours.

      I bought the "Around the Corner Crochet Borders" book and there are so many borders in there that I love I think I'm going to have a hard time choosing!

      thank you :) It's a Lucy pack from Deramores :) My little boy is going to be over the moon when it's finished. I think I'm going to try to finish it in secret while he's at school and then surprise him with it by putting it on his bed one day :)

    I just love your squares and have been having trouble finding a pattern like it. Could you tell me where to find the pattern or maybe you can share yours.
    Thank you!
