Another blanket project just for fun! These colors don’t match my house but they make me happy. Mapping to Polly’s color letters:

  • A - Wisteria
  • B - Violet
  • C - Emperor
  • D - Cloud Blue
  • E - Aster
  • F - Royal
  • G - Silver
  • H - White
  • J - Midnight
  • K - Black

I placed a Wool Warehouse order last night, July 27, for the colors I don’t have enough of in stash (Wisteria, Midnight, Black, Silver) and I’ll work on this as the mood strikes me when it arrives.

My plan is to do all of the large squares except Kaylee and to do the staggered layout like koernerklaus’ Anna’s Shiny Afghan. Her color scheme is also very similar to mine so I know the end result will be beautiful!

There is no pattern page in the Ravelry database for the entire blanket, just the individual squares. In the past when this was the case (like with Polly’s Stardust Melodies) I just did one project page for the blanket and used the “Incorporates” feature under patterns to list the squares. But I like to go to a pattern and see all the different versions/color choices in the Projects tab there, so this time I think I’ll also make a project page for each square. Plus, each of Polly’s squares really is a little project unto itself!

I enjoyed making my second Inara square, this time in the blues and purples. I love Polly Plum patterns!

I was just looking at the next squares I’m going to do and I noticed the River square has a 6” variation. I wonder how the blanket would look with a combination of Cap’n Tightpants and the 6” River?

I just engaged in a little retail therapy at Wool Warehouse and ordered a few extra skeins of the colors I didn’t have more than one of. This is on my list to pick back up soon now that I’ve got my Sophie’s Universe done, which was a WIP from this same era!
