Granny Circle Blanket Update

Progress is going well on my circles for my new granny blanket. Infact, I am just over half way through my circles. I have now calculated that I will need 180 circles, and am aiming to do them all different.

I now have a process to do these as I was finding my self getting very confused over what I had done so far.

Now I am working on multiple circles at a time, usually 5 or 8, which I can comfortably do during a night on the couch infront of a few good programmes. I am making all of the centers the same colour, then doing a different colour for the second colour round, and then a different one again.

I will then move on to doing a different center colour and repeating. I am getting a good random mix of colours and not doubling up or doing too many of one colour this way. I found originally I kept favouring the greens and pinks, so this way I am getting all of the colours in.

I have also gone out and bought a few new colours to add - a light blue, a dark purple and a dark navy. I think this breaks up the colours nicely.

I am using 9 different colours so need 20 centers of each. Easy peasy!

Colour, colour, colour, there is so much of it!

The next update I give you on the blanket will hopefully be involving me starting the white :)
