When we last saw the Big Happy it was a respectable size given it had been in the making a mere six weeks (even if I do say so myself.) And here it is as of yesterday afternoon...
It hasn't grown massively but it has grown...
I am glad it is moving along slowly, because my recovery is slow, I think it has to be really. It feels like the blanket is progessing at the appropriate pace for how I am feeling. After all, slow and steady wins the race :)
I am loving this blanket - I love the colours, the stitches, the ease and rhythm of it, the long-termness of it. It helps me look forward towards a brighter (and not too distant) future.
Love the colours, love that you're determined to stay on the road to recovery. Lovely metaphor for your own progress.
ReplyDeleteIt's perfect - perfect stitch pattern, perfect colour choice, perfect size and you have the perfect approach to it... slow and steady does indeed win the race. Love it!

It looks great, Ali. I'm looking forward to seeing it grow and seeing you feel more "yourself" as it goes!
ReplyDeleteOhh that purple is a fantastic color! It looks great!
ReplyDeleteYay! Slow and steady wins the race.
ReplyDeleteI love how the dark purple sort of "anchors" the bright colors.
