Amost done with bright blanket

I am almost done with the crocheted monster that my middle son wanted. I made a granny squared pastel for my first son and my middle son has been bugging me for one like it. I tried to take him yarn shopping to pick out colors that he might like and the only thing he would tell me is that he wanted a squares blanket ever time I tried to ask what color he wanted. So I got primary colors and it is making my eyes buggy. When you put them together it makes them stand out a lot more so far. The orange almost seems like hunter orange instead of regular orange. I can't wait to be done with it. I put it up for a month because I couldn't handle the eye strain anymore. I know Anthony can't wait to see it when it's finished. I will have to try to post a picture of him with it. I have a lot to do as we are having a garage sale this weekend. I hope it don't rain. I am going to try to get this blanket finished before Friday so I can finish a pair of thrummed mitten I started. I have one done but it is a little long I think I might shorted it by a round in the thumb and on the end. That way I will have something to do while waiting for customers and while trying to keep my kids out of trouble. Good luck to me I might be better off with knitting a dish cloth of Friday instead.
