One week's worth of work and this is how far i've gone. I'm so proud of myself, I really thought this would be complicated, after about frogging my work 10x I finally got it and I'm putting in some life lines to save myself from extra trouble.
I'm currently looking for a way to block the blanket but not sure how to exactly since this really would be my first time ever making a and blocking an actual item. I heard a steam ironing works, I may do that on the floor with some towels underneath.... Now 8 more weeks to finish it up hehehehe...

Oy Vey is all I have to say. This new building by my house in brooklyn is definatly going to be a massive pain in my booty!! I have a feeling this is going to be the "red headed stepchild" type of building.
But the highlight of my week I finally have all the yarn and materials for the "Argosy baby blanket"
Pattern

PurlSohoFor one of my boss's (that's right one out of two)
His wife is due in about 10 weeks but I keep forgetting the pattern at work :o(
During times like these I really think about how stupid I am that I never bought a printer with my orginal computer. I hope I get this done soon (bites lip) 10 weeks and counting.
I guess I'll post the most recent and keep going.....
