I have bad news for my Jericho Blanket….it’s hit the frog pond.
This pattern is gorgeous, but I just wasn’t feeling the yarn/pattern combo. I just didn’t feel the drive to keep working on it and I didn’t even get past my first color change. I didn’t want it to languish so I pulled the plug.
Instead of a written pattern, I have decided to move forward with an improvised pattern of my own. I cast on a bunch of stitches (you like my exactness? lol) and started working back and forth in stockinette. I will work 3 inch stripes of each color (black, grey, wheat, and cream) until I run out of yarn or the blanket gets big enough.
Then I plan on picking up and adding a seed stitch border in black around the outside. I’m slipping the stitches on each side so that they are easy to pick up later. I feel much better about this project and I have the mojo to keep working.
And I will donate my blanket to the local animal shelter!! It’s cold out and every fur baby deserves a good snuggle blanket. Don’t you think?
Happy Knitting!

I think that your exactness is just the ticket. I look forward to seeing the result.
oh that is so sweet. Good luck.
That’ll be nice ❤
Sounds like a great and snuggly blanket, I am excited to see the FO.
Half my projects start out by causing me some kind of distress 😦 Some days I swear I wish I could quit knitting. But I’m sure your revamp will be a big improvement. Love the colors.
Sometimes a yarn/pattern combo just isn’t meant to be. Life’s too short to knit things that aren’t enjoyable. Good luck with the new pattern!
