Almost Done!! I just need to do some cosmetic work to the border. Add some more fringey things. Maybe add some embroidery work on the plain gray end. I started following the "simple" chart (the plain grays section) then started to get more "adventurous" through parts 2-4 then decided to go to the "traditional" chart for the final piece. I am not using the published border and I decided not to do the twisted fringe. I added some extra colorful rows on the two non-fringe ends.
I am ready to put this one aside and do something else . . . maybe start another Queen in different colors . . . I did post about the Moroccan queen weeks ago and I have collected all my yarn. It won't be a big blanket either but it will be pretty.
Here is most of me covered by my "I'd rather be blue" Queen! It measures 40" x 54".
"I'd rather be blue" using colors in the blue and gray family.
Stormy Gray, Misty Gray, Slate Gray, Granite Gray, Midnight Blue, Marine Blue, Sailor Blue, Kingfisher Blue, Royal Blue, Duck Egg Blue, Washed Teal, Seafoam Blue, Champagne White
