So Iāve posted in a couple places about a Christening Blanket Iām trying to make for my daughter before the begininng of Julyā¦
The saga/woes continue 
So like the square CAL, Iāll keep updating here in one thread instead of multipleā¦
I took this first pic on May 25th
And hereās todayās newest development 
Iād appreciate prayers that I can figure out how to accommodate the lack of yarn and still finish in timeā¦ Thankfully itās my design, so I have wiggle roomā¦ I just really wanted 240 rows to get the length I wanted

What brand, weight, color is the yarn? Maybe someone has a skein??

Iām headed to the atore now to see if they have the same dye lotā¦ But may also find a way to use a different dye lotā¦ Or just make it around 210 rows and a different color borderā¦ Weāll see after I get to the store (so thankful hubby understands and is willing to drive me today, sleep deprivation makes it unsafe today)

So, I didnāt find the same dye lot,. But found 2 skeins of anotherā¦ So Iāll rip back to the start of row 61 and use the fade technique to join the new dye lot, work with that dye lot until I finish row 180 and fade back to the 1st dye lot, ending and bordering in the 1st dye lotā¦ Little extra work, but itāll be worth itā¦ Honestly my local Michaels never has more than 2 or 3 of the same dye lot, so Iām not really surprised, just bummed about ripping back when Iām already behindā¦

Okā¦ I ripped out just over 11 rowsā¦ Then started adding the new dye lot for 2 rows, followed by the original dye lot for 2 rows, will continue in this manner for 20 rows then will switch to new dye lot until I need to fade back to original dye lot (at row 160)ā¦
I took a quick pic tonight, but only had about 30 seconds before my daughter was going to lose her mind for bedtime, so it doesnāt show the texture or the design wellā¦

I have finished row 85!
Still need to try to do 7-8 rows a day, but making progress

Finally took another progress photoā¦ Just finished row 157 in this picā¦ Realized I made a mistake all the way back at the beginning, but can fix it by eliminating a few rows at the endā¦ It wonāt effect the design at all, just the sizeā¦ Itās not a big deal, but Iām a little bummedā¦
Just over a week to finish
