another present finished ..


Bobble blanket...
Another' ta- da' moment .... I finally finished my bobble blanket  I have been making...
was very easy to make bobbles are 5 trebles  per bobble....I reckon there is 150 'stripes' to the blanket and each one takes approx an hour to do. For warmth this is a very good blanket to make, its toasty!
All made in double knit and has taken me 4 months to do to the finish.Of course have been working on some other projects as well inbetween. this is a xmas present....
got 2 more things to do before xmas and then I shall be back working on the cut thru and doing some jewellery making again...
