Towards the end of last year I made a blanket with the same
design and similar colors. That one was a Christmas gift. My husband and
I loved it so much that we decided I must make another one.
So,
we changed to brown from gray, and kept the other colors the same. We
went from Super Bulky to Lion's Brand Jiffy Bulky yarn. I used about 20
skeins! It measures about 100"x100". For reference, a quick search on
Google shows that a queen blanket measures 90"x90". I was getting
pretty quick (when I didn't have to pull out a row or two for not
finishing my "v" stitch) that I was getting about 7 rows completed in
about 2 hours, or about a row every 20-30 min or so.
So....it repeats 7 rows blue, 3 rows white, 4 rows brown, 3 rows white, 7 rows blue....... all "v" stitch.
I'm
going to apologize in advance for the lighting. When I use flash in my
room, it distorts the color. When I turn the flash off, then the
pictures are dark. I really need to learn the setting on my dslr to help
combat that.

Thanks for looking!
