Squares are stacking up

The Lizard Ridge blanket is moving right along. I now have 20 completed squares, which leaves 4 more for the size in the pattern. I'll compare it to a good sized flannel quilt that we currently use on the couch. If it's about that size, then 24 squares will be good. If it's drastically smaller, I will consider more squares.

I've also finished the Candle Flame Shawl in 3 skeins of Southwest Trading Co's Bamboo. It came out to a good size, and the Bamboo yarn has a lovely feel to it.
