The Really Exciting Part

In an earlier post, "Image Knitting" (April 24), one can see the beginnings of the 4 x 6 blanket depicted below. It only lacks edge-sashing and seaming to be complete. Estimated finished weight = 5 pounds.

The exciting part of making something up as you go (as opposed to following an "outside" design) is in seeing the completed process. As in painting or songwriting, there is the delicious feeling of having gone as far as possible with that particular experiment.
