I did a few of my common afghan-sizing tests to see if I'm getting close to having it the right size. It's missing a few patches that haven't been attached yet (or made yet for that matter) but I think we're getting close. But I thought I'd share my highly scientific test methods to determine if an afghan is big enough or not with you.
Test #1. Do you get cold feet during naps?
This test was repeated several times for the most effective results. If this test is passed, move on to test #2.
Test #2. Does it make an appropriately sized fort?
Yes.  Move on to test #3.
Test #3.  Can you reenact scenes from "Titanic" using the afghan as a door and a cat as Kate Winslet?
Affirmative.  Move on to test #4.
Test #4.  Is afghan big enough for more than one cat? 
Clearly, it's not.  I think I'll add another row of circles. 
If you find yourself wanting to do these tests and lacking a cat, you're welcome to my old yellow cat.  She hates life and pees on the floor sometimes, but she's a trained yarn snob and will deliver highly accurate results.

I like your highly technical tests. I think the blanket looks awesome. I wonder if it will ever be cool enough to want to be under a blanket. I have my doubts.
Thanks Bonnie! I repeated test #1 again today in the comfort of the A/C. I finally started with the border today so no matter how many "one more rows" I think it needs, it's not getting them!
