It's Done

The Big Boring Blue Blanket is done!  The knitting at least.  And the casting-off, which was, as everything with this project, interminable.  After several hours of grafting it's off the needles. I have a few ends to weave and then tomorrow I will give it a bath and a tumble so it will be ready to pack up and mail on Saturday.  I feel so...light and free.  The world seems full of new knitting possibilities. 

This picture tries to give an idea of the size.  I wanted to be generous with the sizing.  I may have gone a bit overboard.
 
This picture shows the tubular cast-on and cast-off.  The latter was new for me. A bit fiddly, but I can't deny it gives a nice finish.
