Keep Warm My Babies - Progress Update

In August, my goal was to knit 16 squares and have a finished blanket by Nov. 8. Will I finish? Yes... technically. ;)

My squares are a bit smaller than I thought they'd be. This means my blanket will be in that "awkward phase" – somewhere between baby-blanket and grown-up-blanket. Solution? I need to knit four more squares. Am I disappointed? Not really. I'm on track to meet my original goal (a huge endeavor for me) and that's a lot to celebrate! Plus, this blanket will keep me warm while I finish four more squares.

I'll post some photos as soon as it's finished! For now, here are a few progress shots:
