After almost a year, I have finally finished my Wallflowers blanket. The course started on April 2, 2024 although I didn’t start actually working on it until May 20, 2024, finishing it up on March 26, 2025. It is beautiful and I am very happy with it, as is Jezebel, who has claimed it as her own.
This photo was taken before it was finished. It is folded up on a plastic box that holds the leftover yarn from the project. At the start of the project that box was completely full. She really likes the arrangement, so I think it will stay.
Blocking was straightforward.
As recommended by Sue, I pinned it out on my blocking mats and did a light steam with my iron. Now I can focus on Tessellation Nation. I was really hoping to finish Wallflowers up in December before Tessellation Nation started on January 1, but I fell down the spinning rabbit hole and was distracted. I ordered more yarn yesterday (I only had 12 colors selected, and she recommends more - she used 30) and will finally start working through the video lessons again. I had paused when I got to the crocheting part. I’ve been downloading files and setting up the project in knitCompanion.
