some progress, but only just

yeah yeah, Gondor wasn't elvish... I know, but I can't help myself, elven lettering is just so enchanting.

I'm totally proud of myself for making this work. but aside from how much I am chuffed that I got this section to look like it should (meaning I can tell that they are elven letters) I have had such a ridiculous time with this section. I started it and got half way through the letters and had to rip it 3 times - all.the.way.back.to.the.beginning!
I've told my daughter that she better love this blanket more than all forms of expression. :)
she assures me she will


next step, Tree

I'm working on a Christmas present.

I am making a TARDIS blanket for my son.

I don't know if I will write out the pattern yet. it will just be very simple with single crochet stitches for almost the entire project. I suppose if I'm very happy with the end results I will take the time to completely write it out. currently I'm working from a graph I made. that will be part of the pattern once written.

by my calculations it will be gigantic. 4.5' x 7.5' (tee hee) I haven't gotten too far on it. so far most of my time was spent on drawing up a graph for it and calculation amounts of yarn and then deciding what size hook so it didn't end up 20 feet long.

At least I have until Christmas to finish it.
