Notes

Just using three colors to match with the colors in the room. I have to make about 600 hexagons. I have finished like 20 so far.

Enough to crochet, I’d say!

Update May 25, 2010
About 90 are finished.

Update May 31, 2010
Exactly 120 are finished.

Update May 10, 2013
It has been quite a while and I haven’t finished it yet. I now know that I have to crochet a total of 443 whole hexagons and 14 half ones. I have finished 163 whole ones so far and 6 half ones. Still have to make some, but the beige color isn’t for sale anymore. I have to find a similar color, which is really not that easy. Boohoo!

The blanket will be 24 hexagons long and 19 hexagons wide.

Update May 22, 2013
I got an extra beige skein! whakkee was so nice to send me one. Thank you again so much! Still need more though, the blanket uses way more yarn than I had anticipated. But that is okay. I don’t mind.

I am making lots of progress nowadays. I have started 32 brown centered hexagons. Wow!

196 / 443 whole ones finished
14 / 14 half ones finished
151 / 450 attached

Update October 4, 2013
May many thanks to RenaissanceWoman! She has sold me 10 skeins of beige so now I have plenty to finish my blanket. Yay! So lovely of her!

Made a lot of progress lately and all brown and beige centered hexagons are finished. I only need to crochet the brown borders of the white centered hexagons.

When these are finished, I will attach them.

365 / 443 whole ones finished
14 / 14 half ones finished
151 / 450 attached

Update October 17, 2013
It is going quite smoothly nowadays. I only need to finish one white centered ones.

442 / 443 whole ones finished
14 / 14 half ones finished
151 / 450 attached

Update October 18, 2013
I finished them all! Yay!

So now on to attaching them.

443 / 443 whole ones finished
14 / 14 half ones finished
151 / 450 attached
