WIP Wednesday - Update #347 on My Ripple

Actually I think it is about my 7th update on my ripple.  I can't help it, I just love this and I want to finish it!!!!



It is getting so long!


The last row as of yesterday afternoon.  I actually have a few more rows completed.


What is really big with this update is that I've planned the rest of the blanket.  I had to.  I needed to know what skeins I would need more of and what I wanted to do for the border.  So, as you can see above, the final order is chosen.  The final yarn is ordered (I'm allowing this in my yarn diet because it allows me to finish this!).

I really needed to do all of these calculations so I could really get started on the baby blanket that I am making from the leftovers.



You can see the newest rows on my ripple in the picture above on the left.


The final amount of yarn needed to put these squares together is also ordered.  I see absolutely no reason to purchase more yarn.  These were the only two projects that I was worried about.  I need to finish the baby blanket by May.

That is what I'm working on.  I haven't really worked on my knit vest, but I will finish that eventually.

Don't forget to check out Tami's Amis and Small Things.
