I am still in doubt whether or not to crochet a border in the same colours. The border should be quite simple, so the blanket doesn´t become too overwhelming.
In 2010 I started with this mega blankie, then not imagining it would become this large. I finally finished it yesterday making the last 4 rows. It has now become 1.70 by 1.10 meters. I used different types of wool together, one being quite old called ´Zaneska´. I crocheted with a 5 mm crochet hook. I love the pattern from 200 ripple stitch patterns by Jan Eaton. The pattern I used for this blanket is pattern 165 called ´Bright Shells`. It is quite easy, as long as you keep counting ;)
