Another "endless" project finished!

And because it still amuses me so much, I'm going to post before and after blocking shots.





Pattern: Hemlock Ring Blanket, modification by Jared Flood (I recommend picking up the PDF put together by the Rainey Sisters which has a correction to the original doily pattern.)
Materials: Araucania Nature Wool in #20
Needles: US 9/5.5mm circulars
Amount: 3 skeins
Knit for: my grandmother





Ah the wonders of wool. Now, what large project will I tackle next...

That's so cool. It looks like a cross-sectioned tree trunk or something.

I lurve before-and-after blocking shots. When one mostly does scarves, hats, mittens, teratomas, and vulvas, it's nice to know that blocking still serves a purpose. Plus it's kind of like a magic trick.

Looks LOVELY, my dear.

Your Hemlock ring came out so beautiful. Makes me wish I made mine in a handdye. I am so glad you posted the before and after blocking shots. I haven't blocked mine yet and even though I know that it will be okay after blocking, the current state scares me a bit. Now to clean out the studio so that I have an Astrid-free place to block that sucker.
