This started off as the Jelly Roll Blanket but I decided to follow the Knitting Squirrel’s striped blanket because it’s more portable.

I used scraps less than 3g, so it’s very scrappy. No rhyme or reason to the color sequence, just whatever I happened to grab from my endless stash.

10/16/24 - 2 strips
10/27/24 - 4 strips
10/31/24 - 5 strips
11/4/24 - 6 strips
11/12/24 - 7 strips
11/24/24 - 8 strips
12/30/24 - 9 strips
1/4/25 - 10 strips
1/13/25 - 11 strips

7/8/25 Finally started joining the strips. I put it off so long that I forgot that I put a pin to indicate the right side (noticed this after I had already joined two strips, one with the wrong side showing, which I decided to leave as-is).

I’m having trouble visualizing how the two strips fit together, so I’m throwing caution to the wind and just joining random panels.

Used US3 to pick up and knit 530 stitches on each panel. Decided to use the Lana Grossa Aktion because it’s the last two skeins of this variegated colorway, which has been a staple in my little Etsy shop until it was recently discontinued.

I straightened the edges but of course failed to take a good photo.
