Avatar: The Last Airbender Blanket

Hi there! *waves* Somebody pointed me to this community to post this on, and said that you guys allow crocheted projects, so here we go. I don't know how many of you are Avatar fans (and if you are, I'm sorry if you've seen this already) but I crocheted a blanket based on the the four elemental designs from that show.... Thanks guys!

Because I figure if you have an all-consuming, unnatural obsession that pretty much takes over your life with little remorse for its own part... well, you might as well be productive about this, right?







Full view:



Draped over a chair (yes, it really IS that massive... about 72x72"):



Details:













I also decided to write a pattern for it, should any fellow crocheters feel up to taking on this challenge, or if anyone's just curious as to how I did it... :D



Click here for the pattern!



Hope you all like it. And yes, feel free to marvel at the lengths I will go to satiate my fandom obsessions...

Wow, that's gorgeous! :D

Thanks a lot for the patterns. I'd love to make my own when I finish my current projects. Or at least use one of the squares to make a Water Tribe cushion, if I'm feelign lazy...

Sure, that would be cool! Make sure to share pictures if you do make it. :D

Very nice. I had to make a centerpiece to a blanket featuring the four avatar symbols last year. It was difficult because I was working in a much smaller space of stitches and certainly not as detailed.

Brilliant job.

Ooh that's cool! I like how you modified the symbols to fit in a smaller space. :D

Thanks! :)

That is SO beautiful. I dare not show my kids because they would want me to knit it on top of all my other projects. (BTW - they are watching Avatar right now!!!)

LoL, understandable.

Oh, wow! I'm such an Avatar dork, and that's rather fantastic.

I have plans for Four Nations hats and an Aang arrow-head hat somewhere in my brain.

Thanks!

An Aang arrow hat would be awesome!!
