Bliss blanket

I just wanted to give a quick update on how my blanket is going! This is one square with the yarn I am using. You can see the pattern MUCH better...the fibers are more compact since its cottony, and they stick together than the pink yarn I used for the sample, so it looks really nice! plus it feels good! I can't wait until this thing is done. I have quite a ways to go! I have 5 squares now, and I am getting much faster at it. You should be able to double click on the pics to get closer views of them. The last pic is one of three of the squares in sequence so you can get an idea of what they will look like together. I have not stitched them together yet. I also have to "block" the finished ones, so that they retain some sort of square shape and not be loopy around the edges. Every time I finish a square though, I get a big smile on my face! =D
