welcome!
today the light is good and bright enough to make some photos, it is cold with faint sunlight.
the soft ribbels crochet blanket is finished and below you can see the pictures of the result!
after many attempts i decided not to make an edge. i hesitated and hesitated and have the blanket washed and after it was dry, again made several attempts but eventually i decided: no edge. so this is an edgeless blanket 🙂
for two nights i already slept under it and it turns out to be a warm blanket, because besides the blanket i only have a summer duvet and i didn’t have it cold at all. it is stretchable and it feels comfortable and warm.
i am happy with it, hope you like to take a look at the photos!

Je deken is prachtig geworden!
Het is net als de boorden van een trui: 1 recht, 1 averecht, of 2 recht, 2 averecht etc. Daar zou je ook geen rand verwachten. Zou heel raar staan, denk ik.
Is de stretch van de deken geen probleem in het gebruik? Dekens zijn in het algemeen niet rekbaar.
Groetjes, Estella

Dank je wel Estella!
Ja, het is geen doorsnee deken en ik denk niet dat dit type geschikt is voor iemand die er veel aan sjort en trekt. Voor mij is het een ideale deken, door de rekbaarheid is het soepel en laat het zich mooi draperen.
Groetjes en dank voor je bezoek en berichtje!

Such a gorgeous blanket! I love it – the simple (looking) but very effective pattern and the colors: oh my – very, very beautiful! I’m guessing that any kind of border would look frilly on this “bold” blanket and would take away from its beauty – good decision to refrain from crocheting one. Marianne xx

Thanks so much for your kind words! There where more errors with making an edge around this blanket: the stretchy fabric, the stripes and the character/looks of the blanket. Whatever I tried was spoiling the result I had in mind.
That is why the blanket has no edge 😊
Thanks for visiting Marianne!

It’s gorgeous, no wonder you’re so pleased with it 🙂 I think skipping the border was a good choice too

I love these colours. It’s beautiful on the white sofa. Enjoy snuggling under it (the blanket not the sofa!) Regula
December 10, 2014 at 10:21
Haha, no I won’t snuggle under the sofa! Glad you like the blanket! Have a wonderful day!!

I would like to hide under the sofa and sleep there for three days at least. 🙂

Lovely! Very neat too!
Inderdaad een heerlijke deken voor deze kille winternachten.
En ik snap helemaal waarom je deze geen rand hebt gegeven – hoezeer ik ook van randen hou, sommige projecten komen simpelweg beter tot hun recht zonder – en dit is er inderdaad zo een!
Fijne avond! Haafner
