I am making a cushion in Stylecraft chunky with the same blackberry stitch, and I am worried how much I am using at £2 a ball, I have 6 balls and think that is a huge amount, at less than £2 a ball for 100g :o I would say recover the yarn and use for something less yarn hungry and make is a far more economical yarn, perhaps not bobbling every row? Awful decision to have to make though.

I think you could ...I say don't frog it either. I think you could turn it into a throw instead of a blanket. Make it a manageable size without such extreme costs. Just go with it until it is a size you can use to throw it over your legs if it is chilly on the couch. And it is soooo beautiful that it will look great on a couch too. <br /><br />Now for the funny thing...I was going to start the springtime throw but checked and I cannot get the main color I bought for it any longer. I am sure that I do not have enough. So I was going to stash bust by making this same bobble blanket to use up the bulk of my yarn. I too fell in love with it when Carole posted about it. Now I am a little concerned that this too will not work although I would be happy with it as a thrown. How many yards or meters are in your balls of yarn? <br /><br />I am trying to keep myself from any new starts until I get the second gift ready to send off to my brothers for Christmas. Oh the temptation! :-)<br /><br />Hugs from Holland ~<br />HeidiHeidi Kuijerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03498055038966200631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7372661717207837443.post-87540645795955384052012-10-02T13:25:19.677+01:002012-10-02T13:25:19.677+01:00I think it looks amazing and I hope you keep worki...I think it looks amazing and I hope you keep working on it! :)Julie Tucker-Wolekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16120580254018653082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7372661717207837443.post-51779232426638704122012-10-02T13:22:15.194+01:002012-10-02T13:22:15.194+01:00My heart says to carry on, buying as many balls as...My heart says to carry on, buying as many balls as you can a month, but if you aren't sure perhaps you should make a cushion with the Rooster yarn.
