Notes

My ongoing treadmill project!
I marked this as finished even though I’ll be adding more blankets for a long while.

Blanket #4: Brown and White Lemon Peel, July 2021-Dec 2022.
yarn Red Heart Classic, 978 Browns, H8/5.00mm hook. It was an old skein my mom probably bought in the late 70s or early 80s.
yarn Big Twist Sincerely, white.
memo 4.50mm hook. Finished size18”x16.5” (46x42cm). This blanket has 4 chunky stripes. The brown multi in Lemon Peel Stitch looks similar to houndstooth.

Blanket #3: Fiery Sunshine. December 2020.
yarn unlabeled Orange/yellow mystery multicolored acrylic from the 70s or 80s, split into two balls (44g and 35g).
yarn Orange and yellow bits from Mira mini-skeins.
memo Hook: Maybe H8/5.0mm, except for the solid stripes in Mira mini skeins where I used I9/5.5mm. I probably used a G6/4.00mm hook in the section where the pooling lined up. This is what happens when I don’t leave a note to myself saying what hook used already.

Blanket #2: Blue and Purple Stripes. December 2020.
yarn Random scrap acrylic, worsted or DK weight.
memo I ran out of purple halfway around the edging, so I used a Mira mini-skein to finish it up.

Blanket #1:
yarn Random sport/DK weight scrap acrylic(?) yarn in pinks and red. About 19.5”/50cm wide.
memo Hook: US C2/2.75mm. Foundation: 100st. Goal is 15”x18” but mine ended up a little wide and I probably should’ve made it 90st wide instead.
