Valentine Blanket - Did I Meet My Goal For Today?

Did I Meet My Goal For Today? Well, I didn't meet the goal of having this Valentine Afghan finished today. I will have it done "Lord Willing" this coming Monday. I've been working on this Afghan since February 1st, 2020. I put a big pink button on 6 hearts. I was able to sew on 2 of the hearts. My plans changed for today but I will continue to post on this page as I complete this project. Multi-Purpose Valentines Blanket or Breast Cancer Awareness I finished sewing on the hearts This morning. With a size P needle, I chained 26 and tied a bow around the buttons. I'm doing all 6 that way. It is cushy, comfy, happy and heavy. Please look at the past three posts. To see about this afghan.

Evenly Spread Across 4 - corners are bright pink - 15 loops each - two loops are tied in the front to form a bow. 2 small rows edges are light pink - 30 loops each. 2 small rows edges are white - 60 loops in each 2 large white edges - 90 loops each 1 large middle section of bright pink - 90 loops On Both Sides P/16 Crochet Hook In the picture above is the edge of my blanket. If the edge is white the fringe is to be white. If the edge is pink then the fringe is to be pink. Along the edge, there are holes sometimes they  are bigger and sometimes they are smaller. Every hole on the edge will be filled with loops.  Sometimes only two loops fit  and sometimes five.  Fit in as many as you can. But do it evenly across....
