Octagon Cat Blanket - Dark and Light Turquoise

Size: 25 inches point to point; 22 inches side to side

Colors: Dark and Light Turquoise (Patons Canadiana )

Pattern: Octagon Cat Blanket - Design by Cheryl Lambert

Hook: N

Date: start December 16, 2006; December 17 need more yarn; March 3, 2007 decided to finish off as is and use for a cat blanket

I had only 2 skeins of the very bulky Patons Canadiana yarn so I was limited in what I could make. This octagon blanket started started as a baby blanket last December but there wasn't enough yarn to make it large enough. I put it aside until I either bought more Canadiana yarn or pulled it apart for another project or... Yesterday I decided to just finish it off, hide the yarn ends, and call it an Octagon Cat Blanket. Jaz very kindly agreed to model the blanket on her bed today.

Hi, Rose - I didn't write anything down as I made it, so there isn't a pattern.
Here's an Octagon Baby Afghan pattern you may want to try:
