How To Knit A Gigantic Blanket

Knit one Purl one.

Familiar words to those in the knitting circle. Even though I know the lingo don’t be fooled, when it comes to knitting or crochet the one thing I lack is patience. I’m not very good at the whole tension thingy, I really can’t wait to complete anything that I start which always means I only ever attempt small projects which is a shame when you think of all the wonderful stuff there is out there to make.

So you can imagine my utter joy & excitement when I stumbled upon this next blog site. I mean wow, now this is my kind of project! Thanks to Laura over at Nocturnal Knits, I think my interest in knitting has just been re-awakened. The project in question is a super huge Giganto-blanket, as Laura puts it, & boy the name fits perfect!
