So, I have decided that I need to make another Iona. Not like I really need to make another blanket, but hey, that never stopped me before, so why should it now? I am going to try to keep the background the same sort of colour, as much as possible. I will need to see what I have in my stash. Anyway here is a picture of the first three squares of Iona.
I'm into crafting, and have way too many UFO'S, and WIP's to list. I thought I'd try this out, to see if it would help me get some of them finished.

Ongoing plans
So, I was going to work on my 10-stitch blanket, but, ideas have been rumbling around for variations on my patchwork blanket instead. I am actually going to call it my 'Framed' blanket, because it is going to be framed around the edges. I wasn't going to frame it, but having done one row, and started the second, this idea came to me. I am only doing it to a lap blanket size, or at least, for now it will be lap size. Here is a picture of the frame that I am talking about. I don't have enough to do all the edges in the one colour, so as I run out, I will just change it.
Yes, the centre square is going to have a cable on it, and that is because I felt like doing something a little different. In fact, the whole blanket is going to have a cable on the centre square.Iona second time round
