The finished blanket

My first big crochet project...finally completed! Here's the original blog post when I first began: http://soaprehab.blogspot.com/2010/02/crochet-project-2-blanket.html So, that took a lot longer than I had imagined, but I'm very happy with the finished product. It has a nice, soft feel and drape and is lighter than I thought, which makes it a perfect year round blanket. I think I'll work on a few smaller crochet pieces next, though, before I go launching into another big item like another blanket. It's very satisfying to use something you've made, yourself, don't you agree?
