Bad Joan's Hand Knit Throw Blanket

On the weekends Bad Joan likes to relax and unwind by knitting.  Her latest creation is a hand knit throw blanket made up of 6 different colors which are knitted together in different pairings.  She finished this yummy and colorful piece off with chocolate brown fringe that has a few brighter colors sprinkled in.  Check it out...





What are you doing to help unwind this weekend?

GTBB,
Bad Joan
