one thing i would say about this is, if you wanna try and make one, do one less repeat of the chart than the pattern says for whatever size you choose. i was intending to make the cot blanket…
i don’t have any common sense but if you do, use it
@pisscotheque Wow! This blanket is fabulous. Thanks for the Ravelry link. I signed up for the newsletter.
@pisscotheque That's fantastic, and I especially love how you picked colours that match your cat!
@pisscotheque My word, that's marvelous. Has the cat christened it yet?
@LoraHughes it was all i could do to keep the cat from trying it out before it got given to its new owners haha
@pisscotheque that is most excellent!
@pisscotheque That is magnificent - well done!! 😻

@pisscotheque

Holy cats! 😻😻😻

@pisscotheque Wow - that’s amazing!
@pisscotheque you did beautiful work on that, it’s really impressive!
@normakrautmeyer it makes me happy when I specifically boost a toot for you and you see it and like it, too. πŸ₯°

@jillithd that cat blanket is SWEET. I've never sat down and done intarsia, it's on the list of "I could probably figure it out if I really wanted to" but haven't done it yet - and then that's a full blanket of it! Thanks for making sure I see cool stuff like that, sharing weird stuff with you is always fun.

Now we just need to get Lynda Barry on here...

@pisscotheque
Actual cat for scale πŸ‘Œ
@pisscotheque Just had to comment that Huel Angel's Thesis has properly made me laugh.
@Madeley it finally found its audience!!
@pisscotheque Love it!!!! So talented, you're amazing!
@pisscotheque Beautiful work! Congratulations! I once knitted a baby blanket in a super simple alternating pattern using double knit. One of my friends, a professional knitter/pattern designer, looked at it, complemented it then looked me in the eye and said, "You know, doubleknitting was never meant to be for anything as large as a blanket." She'd absolutely lose a kidney if she saw your herculean project! πŸ˜‚
@LGsMom oh god it wasn’t huh?? that explains a few things πŸ˜…
@pisscotheque
OMG!!! Love, love, LOVE.

@pisscotheque That is brilliant!

Bookmarking for when I've got my thumb back.

@pisscotheque That’s amazing – very cool pattern 😻

If I tried this, I’d probably drop stitches all over the place and make a terrible mess!

However, in your case it seems to have turned out perfectly even though you dropped a whole cat (last pic) 😸

@transponderings oh there's mistakes in it i promise πŸ˜… i once heard an old wives' tale that all knitting needs to have at least one mistake in it to stop demons living in it or something. so i don't mind

@pisscotheque
Me: "ooh, I wonder if this is double-knit!"

Me: starts reading #AltText

Alt text: "it's reversible!"

Thanks for including text descriptions that call out the stuff you think is important, so that sighted people like me who are tired don't miss the significance of the folded over corner! 😁

@pisscotheque

I don’t knit, but I do cat. This is gorgeous! 😍
