A Golden Thread

Cosy Stripe Blanket My Cosy Stripe Blanket is almost halfway with 43 stripes (86 rows) completed.  I've had golden thread sitting in my stash for quite some time and decided to crochet it into one of the stripes.  I'm hoping there will be enough leftover to do another golden stripe later on too!  I've also got some metallic bronze to introduce into the colour palette as well!  Matisse and I snuggling up and crocheting the golden thread into the latest stripe: It's been really fun using so many different colours.  I do have a plan I'm working off... but I've also spontaneously changed things as I go along, so the colour order hasn't been completely set in stone.   The pattern is from Lucy at Attic 24 Previous progress at 18 stripes: WIP, 22 stripes: WIP, 27 stripes: WIP, 30 stripes: WIP, working on stripe 34: Stripes 34 to 43 close up: Current progress, 43 stripes/86 rows: Happy Stitching! xxx

Zebra Stripes & Rainbows... Nice!

Challenge #4 I've finished the Challenge!  Here it is: Previous progress: Challenge finish: Cosy Stripe Blanket My Cosy Blanket has gained more stripes but not as many as a Zebra!!! ;)  It's currently sitting on 18 different coloured stripes, with 36 rows complete.  I think it will need about 90 different coloured stripes, or about 180 rows all up... So I'll keep stitching lol!...  The colour scheme should begin to make more sense once colours start to tie back and repeat.  There won't be too many repeats though as I've got quite a few different yarns to use!  I'm loving the texture of the contrasting rows.  The pattern is from Attic 24 .
