Progress....it feels good

So I have been doing pretty well with this knitting thing. I have done 3 repeats (16 rows per repeat). I was right about the temp though. It is wicked (Boston shout out LOL) hot here and having wool laying on my legs is no where near the vicinity of fun. However, you do what you have to do in the name of the serenity I get from the simple art of two stick making yarn turn into something beautiful. I love this blanket and every time I look at it I am proud. This is going to be a long haul though. There are 24 repeats of this pattern and I have 12 done. That is just for one side, then I have to make an almost identical piece for the other side, then I have the middle and some borders. But if I keep trudging I'll get there. I just have to have "faith the faith the faith ahhhh." :)
