I like this pattern, I really do. It lets me do all kinds of weird and wonderful things with colours. This is the tester-blanket for a pattern I'll write up as soon as possible. I started off in another colour subset, but I need a model blanket for the pattern picture. So I decided to use ALL my colours (and we all know that I don't shy away from colour. Nom, nom.) I have enough blankets to cover almost every shabby chair and sofa in the Gingerbread House (= no mean feat, let me tell you) so this one is going to be a present ... maybe for my youngest niece, a toddler who seems to enjoy dancing around in little more than her mother's half-finished crochet blankets.

It is beautiful...it is breathtaking...really wonderful!
I love that!! Very 'modern' looking and geometric, if that makes sense - so different from the usual kind of flowery crochet blankets. Looking forwards to the pattern!
Gorgeous!! I love the bright colors with the black border.
I've recently been using a few bright colors of my own (which is not the most usual of circumstances for me :P) I made up a set of really cute flower-shaped dishcloths in bright bright blue, sunny yellow, and pure white. I'm giving away the set on my blog if you're interested. :)

The dark connecting threads really make the jewel tones pop. This is one of my favorite color combinations. It's coming out quite nice, Gingerbread Lady!
