Project Linus Blanket #15:

“Winter Blues”

Perhaps I was inspired by the permanent color of our sky now, but as I was crocheting this one the colors reminded me of the cold sky filled with snow clouds. If you have lived where it snows you know what I’m talking about. There’s a definite difference between rain clouds and snow clouds, and typically the snow clouds are the same color as this bluish gray in the blanket. I’m getting depressed and cold just thinking about it!

I found it to be really interesting that for whatever reason when I was crocheting the variegated portion, the middle band ended up lining up almost perfectly! I know that if I sat down and figured out the math I could probably tell you why it did, but it still makes me chuckle. It’s almost like looking through a fan when the blades are running… you can see stuff moving behind them, but they have a blurry edge to them. Anyway…. that’s blanket #15!
