Granny MONSTER: D O N E !

By
December 6, 2010

Hello sweet friend,

YES YES YES! My MONSTER IS DONE, FINISHED!! Hurray! I made the final border this week end! and I cant wait to show you the pictures! 20 pictures in total! so I have to warn you: Careful your eyes from all these mixed colors 🙂

Ready?

Let’s go…


Some more pictures on our double sized bed…

This is my biggest-finished-by-myself-project : 260x220cm!!

…and I am so proud of it that I want to show it to the whole world 🙂 hehe

…and now that it’s done I feel like I’m empty…

Do you love all these colors? Mmmmh, I go and go again and come back always to our room to have a look…

just to be sure it is still here 🙂

Here it is on the floor…

…being tested by the girls… :):)

…and more pics on the floor…

I am totally in love 🙂

I took more than 60 pics but could not put them all here 🙂

This blanket is made with 42 squares in total. Each square made with 14 rounds. I used more than 26 yarn (I knew this because I weighed it) and more than 30 different color…

The yarn used is a 100% acrylic yarn: Stylecraft special DK bought online from here…

Some pics of the border…

and I’ll post tomorrow the pattern for you…

This is it my friend: The MONSTER in all its glory!

Hope you liked it!

Have a wonderful monday!

Here it is raining and the sky is gray 🙁 so I can not send you some sunshine…

Hope that my post will bring some colors to your day!

MONSTER Kisses,

Sucrette

    Anja, that is such a gorgeous, bright blanket and I can understand why you are so proud of it. I can’t even imagine starting something so huge!! How long did it take you to make?

    Wow Sucrette! That really is one awesome blanket!

    I know the “empty” feeling when you finish a big project, but I’m sure it won’t be long until you stare a new one…. :):):):)

    Congratulations Angie. It is amazing how fast you made this huge, and I really mean HUGE blanket. It is gorgeous in every single picture. I can imagine you feel empty now. Just go and sit on your couch, wrapped in this beautiful blanket and dream, because then you just must be in ‘crochet heaven’.

  21. pattie

    WOW!!! That came out GORGEOUS!! That is a LOT of work!! I always start big crochet projects like that and then never seem to finish them…. I always get lured away to some other crochet project that I saw somewhere and just have to make!! LOL.

    Oh my, that blanket is incredible! All those beautiful colors remind me of a beautiful tapestry. Great job!

    I’m noticing that everyone is using Stylecraft acrylic–the colors are so delish, I may have to try it out. 🙂
