sudoku sudoku


If I can get eric's camera hooked up to my computer without downloading all of the 266 pictures on the card, since I only want the last couple of pictures... I could have shown you the Sudoku blanket pieces I've worked on... I have done a total of 5 squares thus far. One Skein of Wool-ease makes 5 squares with some yarn left over which i balled up and am saving it for later. 4 more squares and I'm done with the a least one color of the blocks... and only 8 more colors to go!

I haven't thought of how I will sew together all the squares or what i shall do when i run out of the colors required... but we'll just get to that road when we get to that road.

I've calculated, it takes me about 2 hours to do 3 squares, and about 4 hours to finish one skein which produces 5 squares. This is on average, without being all in a hurry and speed hooking or what not, and just leisure hooking. It takes 9 squares for one color block (2 skeins), and 9 different colors per each block, it should take me about 144 hours or less or 6 days full days of nonstop hooking to complete the sudoku afghan. But at the rate I'm going, I do about one skein per two days, it would take me 36 days to complete the squares... and that's just the squares, we're not counting the sewing it together parts.

whomever is the recipient of this afghan better be darn thankful for it. speaking of, who is the recipient of this blanket??
