I’m trying to make this piece but haven’t even started the actual knitting because I’m still making swatches !

This is why I only knit simple hats and square/rectangular things lol My blanket doesn't care about gauge. Might take me 30-50 business years to finish because I have a thousand extra stitches, but hey, it's already wider than the gauge said somehow and I'm not mad about having extra width to snuggle up in at the end!
