2010's New Year's Resolution Kept!

In January, Dish resolved that this year she would finally complete the Tetris throw blanket she designed in August 2008. And yesterday, January 29, 2010, just under the wire, she completed the goal. Here it is, from start to finish! Dish cannot believe it is finally done!!

The pattern.



The yarn.



The completed squares, all 200 of them: 84 black, 36 blue, 36 green, 16 red and 28 yellow. Each one took between 30 to 40 minutes to knit.



The finished product!!! Dish likes to call it "Waiting for a Stick". Now that the project is finally complete, Dish would like to send a shout-out to Jeannine for being a competitor in all the frustrating Tetris games that inspired this project and also to Ryan who lent me the Super Nintendo and Tetris game that started it all.

Yay! How come I didn't see this before you left. Did you finish it in the wee hours or something?

I am surprised people still look at this. I am such a delinquent about updating.

Ferda: Happy New Year to you too! Thanks for the Christmas card. That is another area that needs improvement for me.

Joce: The hour was not that wee. You just go to bed too early. ;o) I just finished it the night before I left.
