So much work but so very beautiful!!!

[@kkcrochet]

@@Stitchesandmore thank you! Now that I see it finished I am very pleased. Well worth the work!

[@lindacastellan7747]

It is gorgeous! I could never do the color changes! I would lose my mind!

[@kkcrochet]

@@lindacastellan7747 I have a love hate relationship with them at times. I don't mind them too bad on a regular c2c or even on a graphgan, but those letters are a test for sure!

[@thespooniestitcher]

Woohoo! It looks amazing! What a wonderful gift to your husband. The best investment I ever made was getting a upholstery /chenille needle. You sew your ends in with that and they are not going anywhere. Warning though it is extremely sharp! You have to wear a finger guard or just be really careful. My family is military.

[@kkcrochet]

@@thespooniestitcher thank you to your family for their service. Ok I'm going to have to look into getting this needle because it took me twice as long this time making sure those ends were in good!

[@treasuresmadefromyarn]

I don’t have any fire fighters in the family. I did serve in the Air Force for 21 years working in ground radio maintenance.

[@kkcrochet]

@@treasuresmadefromyarn wow!!! Thank you for your service! Would love to see a video with you telling us about your time in service!

Welcome ❤🤗

[@amybettencourt3404]

Good morning, ladies, That's just sn awesome blanket! I can see why your husband loves his original. No, I don't think I even know any firefighters. I know a few ppl in law enforcement, and plenty of military, though. Have a great day. 🐞

[@kkcrochet]

Thank you!! I have made hats and scarves for police officers before with the thin blue line and a baby set that was police themed.

[@mscscottage1277]

You may see so much work, but I see so much love there...

[@kkcrochet]

Yes!!! I wouldn't make this for anyone but him, let alone make it twice! It is a GORGEOUS pattern but making words with graphgans is very specific .

[@shirleyspring4905]

Congrats on finishing the fabulous firefighter blanket. It’s awesome! My son was in the USAF and worked maintenance on fire trucks. He didn’t have enough certificates to continue when he got home.

[@kkcrochet]

@@shirleyspring4905 thank you to him for his service! 🩷

[@bonniemyers1163]

Awesome blanket. I had two brothers that served in the army. No firefighters

@@bonniemyers1163 thankful for their service!!!!

That is a gorgeous blanket. My brother-in-law made one with the Maltese Cross and other things on it several years ago. Not sure what pattern or stitches he used. He was a firefighter for years and held the chief position at two different departments. Another b-i-l is a firefighter, started as volunteer then continued on as military, got deployed to Iraq as one then after coming home is an international airport one. Quite sure my dad was on the volunteer dept. for awhile. I seem to remember riding in the truck in a parade as a child. I may be wrong. I did get to ride in the truck in a parade with the pro brother-in-law close to 20 years ago. Proud of both of my sister's husbands.

[@kkcrochet]

@@8SmileyLady thank them all for their service. It takes special people to give like they do!

[@DianneMajorCrochet]

No truer words for those in the department. My son and my daughter (she is no longer with the department) would love and cherish that blanket. My son, who is 36, has been with the FD since he was a volunteer at 16, also EMS then also became a PO and now works both!! (That kid is incredible), my daughter (also incredible) started younger than my son, as a explorer while in High School, then she went on and volunteered at her house till a opening came up which took a few years. Then she decided to make a complete 360° career change and now is back to volunteering again. Your bkanket is looking wonderful. I’m not a huge fan if C2C, I’ve made many years ago and I think like anything else, too much of one thing and then you don’t want to even think about it after a while. I will look into the pattern, thanks for sharing. It’s really great and I appreciate you showing us. (PS- my Son & Daughter were in different houses and opposing ones at that. lol can ya imagine the trash talk I had to live through at the dinner table at times) haha 🚒🚔🚑 💜🧶🤟🏼

[@kkcrochet]

@@DianneMajorCrochet oh my I can definitely imagine the dinner table talk 😂 Please thank them both for their service! We always appreciate our fellow brothers and sisters wherever they serve!

[@DianneMajorCrochet]

@@kkcrochet yes, same there! Thank you. 💜🧶🤟🏼

[@ki-rort]

Your blanket looks amazing. ❤ I have had the same issues with my graphgans, but they always look so wonderful once they are done.

[@kkcrochet]

I sure hope this one does!! He will love it regardless!

[@ki-rort]

@@kkcrochet I will be sending the blanket for your charity auction I promised along with hats and scarves for BMO soon.

[@donnajenkins4918]

so cool - I am so proud of you - it's beautiful - again we have something in common - I am making a plain c2c for a king size blanket1/4 t he way through I was so tired of it I put it away for 3 years - I am now alm ost at the half way point and struggling = this is my first c2c and I love the pattern - just too big and get bored with it - wish me luck - you are my inspiration - have a great day ladies and take care

[@kkcrochet]

Donna I'm so excited for you! When I got bored it helped if I turned on a crochet video and worked on it while the video played. It made me forget how long it was taking and the project seemed to go quicker.
