This blanket is up for adoption. I had fun making it, but I don't need it. And it's kind of wacky, so I don't want to just present it to someone without knowing if they would really like it.
So if you are interested in owning approximately 200,000 hand-knit stitches of sock yarn in patchwork blanket form, send me an email or a Facebook message by September 25th (a week from today). If more than one person is interested, I'll draw a name. If you don't live near me, I will mail it to you. (If you neither know my email address nor are my Facebook friend, then I probably don't know you well enough to give you a blanket that took something like 130 hours to make. I'm just sayin'.)
The photos show the blanket on a queen bed; it's a good size to use as a couch throw (I think it's something like 45" x 53"). Click on the photos to see it more up close and personal. Also, one caveat--although most of these yarns are machine washable, there are a couple mixed in that aren't. That means you'll have to hand wash or dry clean it if you dump your chocolate ice cream on it. But you can be more careful than that, right?

That blanket is boob-a-licious!
Chris, what happens at Las Vegas MEOWfest is supposed to STAY at Las Vegas MEOWfest!
And, of course, I will now say...DID HE JUST SAY BOOB?
OK, this comments section has officially turned into an in-joke only zone.
is ti still up for grabs? i want it!
or has the in-joke window closed new bids?
btw i like boobs too.
Yes Casey, it is still up for grabs. I will add your name to the list. I think it's something like 8 people now. (And yes, I know you like boobs.)
I thought Casey meant boobs, when he asked if it was still up for grabs...
I want it (still have the green quilt), but I will dump chocolate ice cream on it, and raspberry sorbet, and beefaroni from a can, and fanta orange soda, and whatever else doesn't stick to me as I melt into the couch each evening. If boobs are involved, I'll laminate the damn thing.
I want it (still have the green and white quilt), but I will dump chocolate everything on it, and raspberry sorbet, and saag panir, and fanta orange soda, and whatever else doesn't stick to me as I melt into the couch. That said, if boobs come with it, I'll just laminate the damn thing.
oh my. I probably shouldn't, but I'm going to throw my name in the hat.
*toss*
Karen,
My mom and I saw your sweet sweater episode on knitty gritty. However, we were not in the loop and didn't know it was a re-run. So instead of writing the pattern down we planned on going online to find it. To our surprise it is not there. Is there any way we can get that patter?? I really want to make it for my sons teddy! Let me know if you have any information. Thanks!
Thank you so much! I am very excited to get started!
BOOBS!!!
I have no idea what the in-joke is, but that blanket is awesome. <3
