Tiramisu Abandoned 

I’ve given up on the Tiramisu blanket. No matter what I do, I just can’t seem to keep 90 stitches in the row. I must be horrible at crochet, or the dark green yarn is throwing me off. I tried 4 times and it still wasn’t turning out right. First my gauge was off, instead of being 32″ across, I was at 23″. I know the border isn’t that wide. I finally went up 2 hook sizes and the width was right, but I still couldn’t manage to get the right # of stitches on each row. 

So I’ve given up for now. I may try it another time, but for now I’m going to stick with my socks, knit afghan and lace shawl. Oh yeah, and at some point (after I finish the socks since I’m using those needles) I need to reknit my sleeves for my Minimalist Cardigan. gah!
