O.k. maybe "rag" is a stretch on R-ville, but I am ready to be done. We're into the whip stitch stage. I perused several possible joining methods and went with the whip because it seemed the simplest- both to do and to look at- and I'm thinking this thang doesn't need any more extra attention drawn to it.
Imagine my surprise when Mr. Sophanne asked "Can I have it?" I immediately replied yes. There's no better way to admire it than across the couch on him. He helped place a few color squares last night. I think he feels as though he's got a vested interest in it's successful completion now.
The picture really isn't doing the colors justice but I promise a good one when all is said and done. I have visions of hanging it on the swingset in the sunlight.

I love seeing all the Babettes "ripen" all the internet.
Wow super cool. Love the colors.
very cool; what an awesome Mr. Sophanne!
Oh, that's gorgeous!! Can't wait to see the big FO!
I love it! Isn't crochet fast?? Of course, the whip stitch isn't quite as fast;-)
That's the finest rag I've ever seen. My DH has been laying the hints on thick that he never gets a knitted item from me while everyone else does (& he doesn't count the hand-me-down slippers that I made for my dad, which he gave to DH when I made him another new pair for Christmas.)
I really like your blankie. So much so, in fact, that I think I'll make one for myself. Just remember..."Imitation is the best form of flattery." And I think your "rag" ROCKS!
It's fabulous darlin'....love the name ROCKIN'RAG!!
Now that's a high compliment!
ooohh so pretty!
