The blankets progress to date has been slow, gallivanting around at the weekend tends to but a stop to any significant progress. Much as I dream the elves are hard at work crocheting all night, it turns out its just the cat having a midnight prowl and no miraculous progress has been made with the blanket by morning.  I’ve promised myself a couple of hours every evening this week to try and break the back of it. 

We nearly did have a disaster though, I’ve got six more strips to go, plus crocheting around the outside and I’ve only 2.5 balls of the cream left…  So I have been working my way through the directory of outlets of the most recent Rowan book and low and behold Colourway.co.uk  had the dyelot I needed.  So pleased, crisis averted.
