I started crocheting this blanket way back in January…

We had gone to Joplin to do some shopping, and I got to re-stock my yarn stash.

Agnes picked through all of the new colors, and found her favorites.

I really liked the colors that she had chosen.

I had spotted a rainbow striped granny-row blanket on Pinterest, and I wanted to give it a try.

I alternated colors until I liked the look of the pattern.

I also decided to crochet the blanket until I ran out of yarn.

Four months later, and a lot of blanket toting up and down the stairs…

I crocheted through The Walking Dead, and a Game of Thrones.

There were also a lot of kitty snuggles and naps.

I had some tiny visitors too. They looked right at home.

Soon it was May, and I was almost done…

There were only a handful of rows left to crochet. After that it was trimming, and weaving in all of the ends.

That took a bit of time, and a few episodes of House of Cards.

All done! Time to give the new granny-row blanket to Miss Agnes.

It looks absolutely perfect in her room. I think it is a nice weight for a Summer blanket. It should keep her warm without being too hot in the humid KS weather.

The colors are so very pretty too. This blanket was an easy one to crochet, but it did take me much longer than I was expecting. I love the finished project, now onto the other unfinished ones.
