Guest Blogger Post: The Granny Square Blanket SHOULD Be Done…

tierneycreates: a fusion of textiles and smiles

This is Mike, the Miniature Schnauzer that lives with Tierney and John. If you are new to this blog I guest blog post time to time. I want to update you on the gray granny square blanket (MY BLANKET) that Tierney has been working on as I am a little annoyed.

(Here I am working on the blog post)

(And here I am slightly irritated that Tierney is disturbing me while I write)

Tierney should have finished by now the gray granny square blanket by now – she has joined all the 80 granny squares together by whatever strange human magic she uses to join them.

But now she’s decided she wants to make the blanket large enough to be a summer bedspread in the upstairs guest room so she is doing something called “adding a large border” while requires her to use that weird needle (she calls it a “crochet needle”) and go around and around on my blanket so it will get bigger.

Here is the blanket after she put all those squares together and started doing some weird bordering of the blanket.

The good thing is while she’s been doing her bordering, I’ve been able to get some naps under the blanket even if she occasionally disturbs me when she spins the blanket while bordering.

Yes, I am a “Napping Professional”.

I want her to stop this silliness and just set the blanket down somewhere that I can just private enjoy it.

Just wanted to update you all on my struggle,

Mike

  1. Ah Mike, the struggle is real!!! ‘Your’ blanket looks amazing and just think – bigger is better, more snuggle space. Hopefully Tierney finishes it soon so you won’t have to be disturbed while she’s working on it. ❤

  4. Your blanket is lovely Mike. You have a wonderful human looking after you and loving you! Try to be patient…she’s probably a very busy woman with all her projects and travels. 🙂

  5. Mike, this is JoJo the cat. When it’s finished, you can go upstairs and have that big blanket all to yourself in private! It’s almost done. Try to be patient, even though I am not. Like you, I claimed my blanket before it was finished.

  6. If you want that blanket left alone, Mike, all you need to do is distract her with another project. Works for me, every time! –Wilbs, the cat. Also, that blanket is most attractive with your furs.

  12. Mike, I’m sure many years of hard study and practice goes into the official title of “Napping professional.” Just think after the border is added how much more blanket you’ll have to hide under.
