Made using the Fairest Wheel blanket pattern in Hobbii twister yarn in Raindrops. #crochet #crochetblanket

Very fond of the details.

And the gradient.

The entire thing took around 100 hours total.

The happy couple loved it!

Beautiful job! How many hours did that take you? And how long would it take a novice to try figure out

3 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

Around 100 hours. It is hard to say how long for someone else, but it’s really not as complicated of a pattern as it looks. I supersized it.

Beautiful work. How many colors did you use for it?

I used a color changing yarn, Hobbii Twister. It creates a gradient on its own, but I did have to do some planning on the color changes also

Thank you so much! The planning of the colors was as much work as the actual stitches I think.

Good gravy that's glorious! How many cakes did it use?

Thank you! I think I used 3 1/2ish. It ended up being more expensive than I had planned but I wanted it to be big enough they could cuddle.

Ooh cool. Yeah, people don't realise how expensive yarn can be! I see you mentioned in other comments the planning of the colour changes,

that's awesome, and thank you! I am a bit slow on my large-scale projects...and I only really do granny squares in crochet so maybe I shall!

It’s a great way to learn some new stitch’s and techniques. My 100 hrs of work was spread out over a year, there’s no rush lol
