I finished my section of the Oddball Orphan Blanket today!
I used Vanna’s Choice – Colonial Blue and knit the Broken Diagonal Check pattern from the book knit & purl…
Chicky and Guy Friend held it up for me today, being careful not to stretch out the top section and thus keep all of the stitches on the needles.
Here’s a close-up of the pattern…
I wove in all of the ends from previous knitters and will be ready to mail it as soon as I get the green-light from the project organizer.
Now I’m inspired to finish my latest prayer shawl! I have 16 rows left!

Nice Job! I like the stitch that you selected. It looks like it is nearly finished. How many more sections are assigned on this blanket?
The blanket needs one more section before it heads back to Shandeh for the crochet border. Then, on to Mexico for its new home!
