Oh my, I LOVE your color choices! I can't wait to see your continued progress on this one! Thanks for sharing! You have a gorgeous range of stash yarn!
I have also been thinking about making that blanket for a while now. And so far it's been the joining process that have intimidated me from starting, particularly once it'll start to get heavy. But I just had a thought (right before seeing your video). That if I used the idea of the blanket and made it in Tunesian crochet, then maybe it'd be easier, if nothing else then because I wouldn't have to turn my work all the time... Really looking forward to seeing how it works out for you. The colours you chose are lovely!
I‘m not as big fan of knitted blankets, but you got me thinking about making one. Cause your color choice makes all the difference and it doesn’t look scrappy at all. Really like your aesthetics!
Bits and bobs is a blanket I'm thinking of making but I did look at the one you chose too. If I do it I think I'd do the colors sort of like a bargello quilt. Also I tell everyone that I'm a renter and shut the door. No issues, no worries lol
Regarding solicitors: If you have a two-story house, hang out one of the upstairs windows and say "whaddaya want?!". Then tell them to leave; no matter who it is if they have no real reason for being at your door or were not invited. You can do the same through a window on a one story. One thing for sure, never open the door for someone - no matter who - if they have no rightful reason to be at your house. I like the pattern you are knitting. I really like knitting afghans.
You don't need to ‘slam’ the door. Just back up, say ‘no thanks’ and gently, but firmly, close the door…nice video. Looking forward to see what you do with this blanket…
Loved this video, thank you for sharing! Your blanket is going to be absolutely beautiful!

You can make half white rows on each strips (vertical white), to make the seam much nicer I think, since it will be white to white
