Kind of hard to get excited about a blanket, that just goes on and gets only longer instead of different. But -- I am now on the fifth ball of yarn, and it looks like it will be a nice size. No bets on the final measurements, of course, but this time I'm getting almost exactly 3 1/4 inches per ball, and it's about 45 inches wide, without blocking. I have to say, I love this pattern. The "plume" part with its scalloped edges, and the little cable-esque detail -- really nice.
*Gorgeous* pattern! It's going to be lovely when you're done!

My husband was just in Hong Kong and that reminded me to check in with you and see what you've been knitting - wow - I love your blanket - it's just gorgeous! and your beautiful scarves - you've inspired me to dig out my Scarf Style book. I received some Knit Picks Elegance today - have you tried it? The Andean silk also feels nice - I think they would make wonderful scarves. Interweave is putting out another "Style" book this Fall - I think it's "Wrap Style" or something - have you seen it yet? I saw some pictures and the little flowered cape caught my eye - it would be so cute on my daughter. I might have to give that one a try! Annhb
