Day 5 of the Blooming Hope mandala blanket and I'm entirely in love

Have taken a long break from my current scrap mandala blanket to work on other projects, but I'll return to it soon. Trying my best to finish old WIP projects (or decide to tear them back and repurpose them), and the WIP pile is slowly lessening.

I've found that my favorite way to use a lot of my acquired yarn that has been around for a while and not had any project homes to be selected for is in patchwork/scrap blankets—in particular, mandala blankets. There's not usually a specific color rhyme or reason I strictly adhere to, other than "try and not repeat similar colors too closely," and I am indiscriminate in adding in new (ideally similar) colors within the same row if I run out; it's a stash-busting scrap blanket, after all.

I also quite happily double up on lighter weight yarns to not only use them up faster (maybe I'll tell the unfortunate tale of the Black Merino Kilt Sock Debacle one day), but also to quasi-simulate another color (like using red and blue fingering weights to get closer to purple).

It's worked in coming together in a very nice cohesive way before—from a distance it often just looks like the "right" color rather than an amalgamation.

Circles are still hard to get to lie flat, but in a scrappy patchwork blanket I'm not sure it bothers me so much.

Day 20 of the blooming hope mandala blanket. I'm so excited to see the colours slowly shift back to purple again. Also I realised I have half as much yarn as I need and had to spend £30 to get the rest
