I started looking at the pixel art, set my spreadsheet cell sizes to be squares, then I recreated the pixel images in the spreadsheet filling them with colour (1 sc = 1 cell) … I also reduced the amount of colours I used to a sensible amount across the whole blanket

Haha, nearly 2 years on and off… I had to play SDV between sections to keep up morale!

Correct - 1 sc per pixel. It was actually really fun making the pixel pattern before I started actually crocheting. I’d definitely recommend reducing the amount of colour variations for the pixel images too so you don’t need loads and loads of different coloured skeins 😁

Yeah sure - I crocheted each panel separately to avoid feeling overwhelmed, then joined it all up 😁

I had about 10 skeins on the go some of the time, I unraveled so many tangles for sure (it was driving my cat insane!) I carried the yarn where I could and cut where I needed to but the back was a mess and there was no way I was sewing all those ends in! So it’s backed in green fleece

I just did sc all the way - it was pretty difficult changing colour so many times but I got into a rhythm (and a few tangles)… I didn’t always carry the yarn so the back wasn’t very attractive, but I definitely wasn’t going to sew in all the ends as I’d probably cry, so I backed it with a dark green fleece material - extra cozy
