throwy greatness So I've recovered somewhat from the mad knitting and sewing.. jumping right into yet another involved project. This one? an afghan. a wedding afghan for a good college friend and his soon to be Frau. I'm spinning about half the yarn for it, which is great, since I've decided that, in fact, 40 inches by 60 inches wasn't sufficiently large enough. Really not the cheapest project to be upsizing on! So instead of casting on a more manageable 150 stitches on a mere 29 inch circular, I've gone for 180 stitches. Each row is a different yarn takes about 5 yards, and I've got well over 2000 yards. In the end, it will be about 6 feet by ??? til I run out of yarn. I think I might need a longer needle!

I'm 20 rows, or 4 inches in. I have my handy dandy chart of how much of each yarn and color I have, in the hopes that I won't prematurely run out of ribbon or mohair or ??? and have this awful ugly blanket. As long as I remember to mark down my rows, it should be a good deal! There are 36ish days to go til the wedding, so if I manage 5-10 rows a night, or more on weekends, I should be done with enough time to fringe and send in the post. I hope.
