Things to Make: Sarah London's Wool-Eater Crochet Along!

If you crochet, you are probably familiar with Sarah London.  She has written some fantastic crochet patterns and books...and her use of color is FANTASTIC!  I love looking at all of her awesome pics on Pinterest!

I'm a little late coming to the Wool-Eater Crochet Along...I didn't know if I'd be able to keep up...but, I decided that even if I fell behind I'd like to make one of these amazing creations!

So...here's my progress on my very own Wool-Eater Blanket!  (I was technically four weeks late for the start of the CAL, but Sarah's said to work at your own pace...so I'm not stressing about 'catching up!)  I opted to try her new Oblong Wool-Eater pattern...

So far I LOVE the pattern...it's a bit tricky at first, but once you get going it's really pretty easy to follow!  The instructions are written in Australian/UK terms, though...so watch for that!  ;)

My blanket is measuring about 18" wide by 35" long, and I've completed 8 rows so far!  I'm using up some odd balls of yarn that i have in sort of neutral earth tones...and a hint of teal.

I love the texture and feel of the afghan...it's nice and thick...but not too bulky.

Wanna make one of your own?
