Time Out

I finally finished the purple border on the mosaic sampler.



 The edges are wavy because they have outgrown the cables.



I put on the new 60 inch Knit Picks Caspian cables and they still weren't big enough. I am going to add one more color border and then for once and for all I'll be done with it. Right now I'm putting it away until summer. It's been a real slog lately but I'll most likely be glad to see it again come June.

    This blanket is incredible!!!! Can I ask if the back looks the same or does it have a definite right and left side?
    The end is so close now!

      The back looks like the back side of stranded knitting. Not very attractive. I bet there's a way to double knit this way but I don't have the brain cells left to figure it out.

      Navy and white, I think. That's why it's going in time out so I can think about it,
