You really are a sucker for punishment you know Laughing

Mind you, there's nothing worse than not being happy with your finished article, what ever the mistake, it always jumps up and down and waves at you!

Brave frogging indeed.

Goodness, what can have been so wrong with it that you needed to frog? Surely you can't see any stitch definition so it can't have been that?
Glad you've almost finished it again though {{hugs}}

lol Franney your right there is no stitch definition but it was just the wrong shape!!

It was too long and skinny and not square Rolling Eyes

I've really gone off this blanket as I have now run out of yarn with 80 stitches to go ..... no idea how that works but I have had to order another few balls Evil or Very Mad

great blanket, I bought one very similar for my daughter, cost quite a bit. I would never have thought to make one so I am really impressed

I love these blankets, Binty, and really admire you for knitting them. I personally can't even knit a scarf with eyelash yarn Laughing

They look fab.

I saw a similar looking blanket in John Lewis about 5 years ago and that cost about £99 Shocked

I dread to think how much it would cost now!
