Thanks, LT! I may just do that. Then I'm not technically lying to her. Yes, this is a completely new project/pattern for her blanket. I'm not even sure if I'm skilled enough tbh.

She'll still be curious, but I can also be honest if I say I'm not ready to talk about it. I just hate how somehow she latched on to getting me to crochet again. It's scary how in sync we can be.
