Blanket Malarkey

...which is what the blanket construction project will be furthermore known as, aptly named by Tania. Upon arriving home yesterday, I found a nice fat parcel of yarn on the doorstep. Hooray! After dinner and the usual tootling around on Facebook, I ripped into it. Here's what it contained:

    I think you are freaking amazing! "Experimental crochet squares....."

    You are so darn talented woman.

  3. Just goes to show how headless chook I have been to miss all this stuff happening. Am extremely glad there's a granny square partner in crime happening - I may need a bit of egging on at one point or another...!
