Virus blanket

[fred_mouse]

I'm starting yet another project (I think I've finished one? I'm not sure -- I have a number that are using up old yarn and so I'm looping through the same set of tasks repeatedly). This time, I've two friends with the same name due to give birth in the same month. So I'm making them matching blankets! I picked a pattern, and then failed to find suitable yarn, so now I'm having a go at the so called 'Virus Blanket'. Written patterns are available for a fee via Ravelry, but I found a fabulous video and some variations at All Free Crochet. The video is just under half an hour, but I've stopped and started it so many times I've no idea how long it took me to get the ten rows done!
