This is an incredibly gorgeous blanket. With the different textures and colours it seems almost animated.

A selection of diagonal squares based around this purple theme.   Also I laughed out loud when I first saw this huge ball of wool - and just had to have it !   It's around 400grams.   I'm going to knit one diagonal square a day with it (to prevent boredom) - Hmm, how many will I be able to make with it....?

Karen, what a fabulous selection of squares.  Your diagonals are just incredible!!!  

I'm not sure I could accurately say how many squares you will be able to make with that huge ball of yarn, but as a rough guess I would suggest ... LOTS!!!!  hahaha xo

Beautiful squares? They are all so neat and colourful.

Good luck withyour mega-ball of yarn. It will be interesting to see how many you can make.
