I’m on the last leg of my Rainbow Granny Stripe blanket and my fingers are itching to complete the border. BUT I have to darn those pesky ends in! I still like darning in, it feels soothing and productive, but actually I just want them gone at this point so I can carry on crocheting! I understand why people advise to darn as you go…
As you see the hook is chasing the darning needle around the last edge!

Yup, I decided to darn as I went with mine. I just know that if I would wait I’d just be to darn (bahahahaha..) exhausted to do it all at the end! Your blanket is beautiful. Can’t wait to see it all finished!! :)
Oh it’s looking very beautiful. The edge is really making it look finished. I meant to save a ball of wool/yarn before I started mine to use for the edge. But then I forgot (the sieve struck again!) and started using it all. So I may have to buy another for the edging.
Thank you!
I love the blanket but hate darning in the ends too. It is one of those things that you just have to do!
I like it though, in this case it hinders the crochet progress. :-)
beutiful colors! the purple edge fits perfectly!
Such lovely colours- it looks great! Good luck darning the ends!
I always end up saying the same thing to myself – next time I will do the ends as I go. But sadly, I never actually do and end up cursing myself for my laziness as I head toward the end of every project! Looks like you are well on the way though…

It’s looking gorgeous, I can’t wait to see the end result. I hate ends too, but know crochet them in as I go and saves sooo much time. Looks like a tutorial might be in order!
was just wondering how big this blanket is – it’s beautiful!
Have a look at the ‘finished’ post…you’ll get a good sense of the size there :-)
