But anyway, here it is! I think it turned out wonderful and I love the colours.
This blanket was made with Stylecraft Special DK and a 5mm crochet hook. I made this pattern up, except for the joining method which is the continuous PLT join from CypressTextiles.
The blanket hasn't been blocked so it looks wonky here. It found its place on my mom's couch pretty much immediately.
The wrong side has some ends sticking out because I'm lazy. I guess I could just cut them, since they have already been partially weaved in by crocheting over them. But to me it doesn't matter that much and there's certainly no hurry with that.
Here are all 210 squares and the left overs from each colour. While joining I realized that the three balls of grey I had weren't going to be enough for the border, so I improvised and used some rainbow yarn from my stash for a simple shell pattern and then framed it with black. I didn't take a close-up photo because I'm not too happy with the border. But in the end I'm very happy with this blanket.
