Textured Blanket and By the Shores of Silver Lake

So my seed stitch afghan is officially

now my textured stitch Afghan!

I kept ribbing by mistake and rather like

how it is turning out!

I am doing it with size 7 needles... 

My new goal is to learn how to do what I intend:

when I want to seed stitch and when I want to rib

instead of merely because I mixed up my knits and pearls!

I am going to add one more red yarn to this mix and then 

it will be 4 or so alternating colours like you see above.

I am really loving it!

I hope to add a border to it when it is finished.

I am thinking it may be a large lap blanket sized Afghan!

I finished Wilder's 

By the Shores of Silver Lake last week

and just loved it!

I went to the Princeton Library booksale

last weekend and found the whole set in paperback! 

I can't wait to read them all!
