I've crocheted many, many C2C blankets over the years but I've never seen one done in a X-formation before. I've always started at one corner and worked diagonally across the blanket. -<

That's lovely!  Wonderfully straight edges, too - my crochet never has straight edges...
I might look as though I'm talking to you, but inside my head I'm sewing.

Why is it called a Felix blanket?
Life's too short for ironing.
