Hi @outlander and anyone who might be reading. Today was not my best day and I spent quite a bit of it working on my blanket. Posting some progress pics Outlander. You've been hugely encouraging and I really appreciate it, thank you 😊💗

I finished all the joining

And decided on this "reverse shell stitch" border. I'm not sure it's totally the right one for this project, but I like it. 

Won't be long before it's all finished now 🙂

Yay @CheerBear will wait for your pics

[outlander]

Wow its so beautifully done! @CheerBear you had nothing to worry about with your joins!
I like the border too. Its really nice, i think it goes well with what youve done!

Youve been a huge encouragment for me too in my crochetting. I hope tomorrow is a better day for you though 🌈🌈

Hi @CheerBear, @outlander and everyone. I'm at the mental health centre, been here about two and a half hours. I'm finding I slack out a bit on the knitting at home, so have taken to coming here, as a way of getting myself out of the flat, walking, socialising and working on my contribution to the knit bombing project coming up. Thought I'd share a work in progress shot...

 Woops, the shot is upside down and taken on my ancient mobile. Heaps more to go. Plus I have discovered this place is a good drop in centre, aside from the scheduled activities I have been going to sporadically for  the past few years. Yay! 🙂

Thats awesome @Mazarita
Looks fantastic! Nice colour too

[Mazarita]

@outlander, the colours are out in the photo. It's more pink and less yellow. I am knitting three different colours together: pink, orange and cream. 

[outlander]

It looked like orange pink and yellow in the pic @Mazarita but i like that colour combo better. As long as your enjoying it thats all that matters.

What will the finished product be? As in what are you making..

[Mazarita]

The knitting is for a 'knit bomb' project, @outlander. There are a bunch of mental health people knitting for it. The finished pieces will be wrapped around trees and poles at the big public hospital here, as a kind of art installation. It's all part of a big art and music day for mental health coming up here soon.
