Nothing screams spring like a big wooly blanket.
The pattern was popularized by Brooklyn Tweed, but is one of Elizabeth Zimmerman's simple masterpieces. [Ravelry Link]
I figure this project will stall through the summer, but I really wanted to get it started. I like the yarn, it is Cascade Ecological Wool and I am hoping I over bought by a ton so I have enough for a sweater. The blanket is made up of 4 pieces. Two small and two large. I have one of the smaller pieces complete and have started one of the larger pieces. Nice mindless knitting to keep my hands occupied during the hockey playoffs. Lets go Pens!
love it already. It would look especially nice in my neighborhood:)
