After a good amount of unravelling the border on the blanket started in a forward motion again before the yarn ran out!
Now the whole purpose of finishing some of the previously resting projects is to use yarn from the stash but as I was not prepared to unravel again and change my border design, I thought about my options for all of five minutes before I decided to just get another ball of yarn to complete this blanket as I originally envisaged.

So new yarn has been purchased and the border is once again in forward motion.
As the socks were finished earlier this week there is currently nothing on the needles! I had not yet purchased above mentioned yarn so I was at a loose end when preparing to go to my craft gathering yesterday.
I've been drooling over 'The Granny Square book' by Margaret Hubert all week, it proved to be the perfect solution to my loose end.
More yarn from the stash, which was previously going to be knit into, oh who knows?
Lincraft Fuzzy Wuzzy is an acrylic/Polyester blend, not to be confused with the vintage yarn by the same name, which is pure angora and extremely soft and certainly fluffy.
Now I am making granny's and enjoying the different styles so far.

The cover design showing all the blocks at the same size is some trick of photography!
Still working through the book from last week - 'Somebody Else's Kids' by Torey Hayden.

Lovely blanket with it's white edging and what pretty wool for your ganny squares..
I'm making time for creating every day even though I should be doing something like cleaning. :/ The border on the blanket is so pretty. Sometimes you just gotta give in and get what you need to finish a project properly. The granny square book sounds great, though I still prefer just make regular ol' grannies. They work up so fast. And come out the same size for the most part. :) Best wishes, Tammy
Granny's must be in the air, I'm doing one, you can see it here.

A lovely blanket, I like the soft colours, and the border is beautiful.
The granny squares look nice too. I am making the same ones as the middle one in your photo.
Thanks for visiting my blog :) So nice to find your blog. Love your crafting.
Your blanket is so pretty. It is going to be gorgeous when it's finished.

I think it was very worth it to buy extra yarn, becasue that lazy border is amazing! Love it ♥
Unraveling is a sad event. But the edging in the next photo is beautiful!! Love all the colors :)
Love your colour range of 'fuzzy wuzzy' wool, and the finished blanket. At least with the unravelled wool, your 'stash-buster' box will never be empty...lol... :) Happy crafting, Jenny
Love the different colors of your granny squares -- so springlike! Happy crocheting!
