More Blanket!

I've made great progress on the Chevron Blanket.  I spent last weekend knitting, tinking, and re-knitting the first white stripe several time, but after I got past that I was moving and grooving! I'm glad I stuck with it.  I had been doing the "purl through the back loop" wrong sometimes, but now I've got it.

Actually, that was the problem I was having with two other projects, so now that I know how to PTBL correctly I can pick those projects back up one day.

I had chosen gender neutral colors, because my daughter didn't think they wanted to know the baby's sex.  Now the gender reveal party is scheduled for next month, so about the time I finish this blanket I may need to knit one in pink or blue!

    It looks so neat and uniform. You make me wonder if I'm doing PTBL correctly so I'll have to go check it out. I've always loved the chevron blankets . . simple enough but not boring.

      Well, heck! Don't know why I cannot sign in. You'd think I'd eventually get this blogging thing figured out.

    Thank you! I had tried several times and I would not have the correct umber of stitches, or the yo's would not look right. I'm really happy I stuck with it. I'm over 40% done.
