[#]WIPWednesday My Fluffy Blanket is DONE! For the third (and hopefully last) time. It started unravelling in the middle, so I frogged it and re-did it.

Eyelash/fur yarn is so difficult to work with, but this yarn is irresistable: not only is it superbly soft, but it is two-tone, with the part closest to the core being a dark brown, and the tips are a brownish-cream - like a Siamese cat.

This blanket is double-knit on a knitting loom (best way of guaranteeing you don't drop a stitch) and the edges are crocheted with seed-stitch (a good way of crocheting when YOU CANNOT SEE THE STITCHES because of ALL THE FUR).

YES the rectangle is WONKY. I DON'T CARE, I'm not going to re-do this blanket again!

Pro tip: if you are going to re-do a project immediately, don't frog it all at once; frog it as you go, pulling out the yarn as you use it.
