Here's another blanket I just finished last night. I started it during the summertime. Yes I know it's taken me a long time to crochet it, but that's because I didn't work on it day and night. I would do some of it only once in awhile when I would watch a movie or tv. Usually it takes me about a week or so to finish one.
I was going to give this one to my friend's daughter but I think I'm going to keep it for myself because I love pink!
What do you think of my new blanket?

I like it. I like pink too. I have tried to learn how to crochet. I can get the first line done then everything goes downhill. I wish i could make my own blankets and creative other things.

I love to crochet, it helps me relax and just meditate my thoughts when I'm just doing that alone. If I throw on a movie and start to work on my blanket, it really helps pass time. Sometimes I'll also take my them to work and that makes hours go by quickly.

I like that yarn. 
I have a scarf and a shawl made from it. I still have a skein left.

I did a few new blankets this year. I crocheted one and the other was a fleece tie blanket. I am almost done with the last crocheted one for my youngest daughter. I spend a lot of my time crocheting dishcloths to give to my family at Christmas time, but still almost always end up doing a blanket too. Maybe I should finish this last blanket and just start crocheting next year's blankets now. I love your blanket, by the way!

I loved making a fleece tie blanket! They were so very simple to make and the hardest part of that was trying to find material I liked and the rest was a peice of cake!
Now I'm debating on doing another blanket but my hubby will bug me about it saying something along the lines of why don't you find another hobby to do? You've already make 10 blankets. Grrrrrr men! lol

I think it's nice - I had to scroll down to see the picture in the comments, but at least I got to see it.
I once started an afghan and didn't finish it until 7 years later.

Thank you cutepenguin, I had fun working on the blanket now it's keeping me nice and warm. I'm debating on whether or not I should get more yarn and make another one or not. Soon this house will be full of blankets lol.
I started a cross stitching project about four years ago and once I put it down, I left it and it's still unfinished.
Thanks for your comment
Happy new year
