Another blanket finished! (Only three more to go)

Wow - I'm quite pleased, another blanket is ready!
And oooh, I do really enjoy the tactile sensation of this one...
- You can probably tell by the gigantic number of pictures. ;-)

It's not a huge throw, but fairly heavy nevertheless...
I crocheted quite a few potholders with this pattern,
and liked it so much I wanted to make a throw with it as well.
So I did! (But slightly adapted the original potholder pattern.)

I will (promiss) share the adapted pattern here,
and aiming to do so within a week.

I used a 5 mm hook and all the powder pink yarn I had in my stash of this brand. (They don't have this colour any more, so I had to stop after 20 squares.)
I single crocheted the squares together (back sides),
and added a simple border - maybe too simple?
That's all!

BTW, I do apologise for the photo overkill. ;-)

Thanks for dropping by - much appreciated! - and have a lovely, crafty, relaxing weekend.
