Slowly but Surely

Thanks to a lot of couch time due to the terrible weather, my Cosy Colours Blanket is still growing. It doesn't look like it but there are several new rows on it. Four to be exact. The mangled thumb is not too crazy about the crochet action so I've had to pace myself.



 The designer said the edges would be bumpy. They are but I know I have the right number of stitches in each row because I count and count...and count and then count again.


Now the big decision is when do I start weaving in some of these ends. I am never really sure if there might be some frogging or a ripping in my future so I hesitate to commit just yet but if I wait much longer....momma mia.

    It is so pretty! I would do t h e ends every ten rows so I wasn't overwhelmed with the operation of end burying!
    Keep adding rows...it will be gorgeous when finished!

    Oh, do I ever like those colors! Do you have a good method for sewing in ends? I could sure use one! Hope you are staying warm!

    Oh it's looking good. We're getting more snow today, so it's definitely a good day to stay in and craft!
