Charity Blanket #3- 60 Million Trebles (first c2c graph)

I have completed my third blanket for Sixty Milion Trebles. (Find out more information about this charity Here).

I thought I'd give myself more of a challenge after completing my first c2c blanket. This time I tried a graph. I spent a while trying to decide on a graph pattern that was simple. I eventually decided on an elephant pattern as I like elephants and it looked simple enough.

However at one point I ended up with 8 balls attached to my blanket and kept getting them all mixed up and tangled. The amount of times I had to rip back my work because of made a mistake was silly. Then there were the ends, THE ENDS, weaving in all those ends took me nearly as long as it did to crochet the thing (I'm really selling this I know). But it was a learning curve. I learned how to carry yarn without it showing and how to design my own graphghan.

I am very pleased with how it turned out for a first try even if I did find it frustrating in parts.

This has added 21,778 trebled to the count. The total count is now nearly 46million which is fantastic!

Hopefully this blanket will bring comfort to someone. 

Hook off.
