Dillon's Blanket

Pattern:
Arboria
Ash Kearns

Yarn:
Berocco Comfort
White

Man. This blanket is gorgeous and I love it, but it was a pretty tedious knit. It wasn't difficult to follow the charts, but it was a pain to carry it around and manage the bulk while working. Next time I make a blanket, I'm definitely not going to make one with finishing pieces because mustering the energy after working for so long was hard.

The yarn was perfect for the project though. It pops well and washes really well. At one point, I spilled Chicken Parmesan on  it but it all washed out. I dont know about the white, but it looks very pretty, especially after being washed. I like the finished product and I feel like it was a successful first blanket.

The shape got a little wonky, but it's not super obvious

Really pretty pattern

It looks much prettier now that I have been able to step back from it for a few weeks
