My Mitred Square Blanket that is. Which I started in January 2018 and finished this month so a couple of months shy of eight years. The good thing is I love it, the bad thing is that I like it so much and I still have loads of scraps, I want to make another. I will try to be sensible and not do that until I have added these older left overs to my scrappy crochet blanket.
My blog post in 2018 when I first started this, said that I hoped to finish it by the end of 2019. What I didn’t take into account that as it was left over yarn this project did not take any priority as I worked with unused yarn first. Many months went by without picking up a square. At the beginning of 2024, I decided that was the year to finish all the squares. And this I managed and blocked them all. At the end of that year I purchased the black yarn for the borders and started joining in 2025.
On returning home, I finished the projects started on my trip and then returned to working on the blanket which was nearly finished – I was on the last border. Dealing with the ends did take quite a while.
Here it is in all its glory.
