I finished the Pinwheel! And not a moment to soon... well about an hour late really. :)
The baby shower started at 2 and I was still knitting at 2:30. Yikes!
I was an hour late to the shower, but the guest of honor had
just arrived, so I was ok. :)
Needless to say I didn't block it. I even forgot to measure it. DOH!
I am sure it was over 40' though. It stretched almost to both edges of my double bed.
Here is the whole thing.
Here is a slightly closer view.
And even closer. This shot is a better representation of the colors too.
I used Cottontots by Bernat in Baby Boy Blue(3 skiens) and Sunshine Yellow(1.2 skiens).
Size 6 double points and circular needles.
Border is seed stitch.
The pattern is free and is here.
There is a great Gallery of other beautiful Pinwheels here.

It looks fantastic andd just in the nick of time! I don't envy you having to cast off that many stitches.
Thanks so much Rain.
I visited your blog, it's fantastic!
Yeah, the bind off was pretty huge, but I used a crochet hook so it went fairly quick. :)
Looks great!
Keep up the hard work.
Crafty like ice is cold....snort!
