Single, half double, double. Single, half double, double.
I started this pattern for my new blanket in October 2019.
I continued working on this, hoping it wouldn’t take me 26 years like the last blanket I crocheted (that’s an old slice).
At about the year mark, I started trying to read more and longer books, so I got distracted from the blanket for a while. So as blankets in my house do, it sat, sad and lonely under the end table, collecting dust for a while.
But I recently pulled it back out and I’ve made lots of progress on it! Made it through a whole skein in just a couple of weeks. That’s super quick for me! And now it’s at this point!
I hope that it doesn’t take me another 2.5 or 3 years to finish this one. But even if does, it should still be less than the last one! And while working on it, I am loving my new personalized very PURPLE crochet needles zipper bag!! And while I’m working on it, I sometimes get kitty snuggles so that’s a big plus to working on it!
Who knows, maybe by next March, I’ll be able to make a slice about the finished product!
With video tutorials, I taught myself to crochet. I have made a couple of things. I started a blanket for my mom and when she passed away, I stopped. The half done blanket sits in my closet three years later. I am hoping someday to pick it up again. Good luck on yours!

I admire anyone who can crochet or knit. I used to quilt before my life as a teacher, and I miss it. I hope you continue with your progress!

Hooray for progress! The only reason I finished knitting my first pair of socks this winter is because I had to keep up with a class. Happy crocheting!

I think your cat has the right plan for this blanket. You are on a roll. I have no doubt that it will be finished well before next March.

Maybe I’ll make this my goal. Finished by next year’s SOL.

Crocheting is actually pretty easy. At least the simpler stitches I know. I could teach you for sure!
