Are you a several-projects-at-a-time or a one-project-til-its-finished person?
I’m in the “several-projects” camp, and usually enjoy having choices, but working on this Lantern Blanket became my sole project from Fall until Spring. Shout out to my friend Ina who shared this pattern by @ Woolture by Sia Nv Estate. I think Ina knits blankets as quickly as I bake a tray of cookies because she has finished many blankets. Hon, this will be the only (and I mean ONLY) full size afghan I work on for a very long time. It took a ton of concentration, mistakes unraveled, rows re-done, and language not suitable for this G-rated blog. But, I did it! I finished this blanket before summer. One big goal accomplished. Whew!

Naomi, Your Lantern blanket is beautiful beyond belief. My only question is how you kept your sanity and managed not to go blind before you finished it. Thank you for sharing it with us.

Thanks, Marilyn! How not to go blind? Bright lights, which annoys my family to no end–lol!

Naomi, you continue to blow me away with all you accomplish. I haven’t had the desire/time to do anything crafty in a good 30 years
Yay for you finishing this! I really love the “distressed” look of the yarn you chose too ❤

Thanks so much! To say I was relieved to finish this project is an understatement. I’m now working on a baby blanket, which should take way less time.
