    About

    I was so excited by the start of the Phoenix CAL at the Hooked on Sunshine group on Facebook, I had to go and buy a get a bunch of cake yarn to give it a try. I'm making this for my son and his bride - they are marrying in July.
    Made a stitch variation in the corners of row 7 by mistake - hpdc2tog in the same stitch! I've left it in as the stitch count is still correct.
    I needed some help in section 5 with stitch placement - the Facebook page fairies are great.
    I finished after Part 6 with a border of rows from the beginning of section 4, followed by rows of hdc and bphdc.

        Released last night about 10 pm - I'll start today! As the blanket gets bigger,the wait each week won't be as hard as the rows are longer. I work on my Atlanticus blanket between times.
