A Baby Blanket-Awaiting the Baby

My most recent baby blanket has been finished. Now all that is left, is for the precious baby to make her arrival.

The pattern for this "dishcloth" afghan can be found at Bev's Country Cottage. I hate to admit this, but this blanket pattern is totally mindless. That is probably not the correct word, but I needed a pattern that was totally relaxing, and wouldn't be hindered by ALOT of "little" interruptions. This was the perfect pattern for this exact time in my life.

I used a very soft, self-striping baby yarn. I no longer have the wrapper it came in, but when I go to the store, I will check the name and repost it here. It is a cozy, stretchy blanket, ready for the cold winter days ahead.

Happy Baby Shower, Sara

I love making baby blankets for the many expected babies and newborn babies of my friends and family. This is the lastest, for my beautiful niece's expected baby girl.

I loved this very easy pattern, (all knit and purl), but I can't find it, (I finished without it).

When I do find it, I will come back and post it.
I used Bernat Baby Coordinates, Sweet Stripes yarn. The stripes appear on their own, perfect. I loved this yarn.

We also tested this blanket, and we found out that it certainly does its job!!

Afgans Galore!

I wanted to show off my latest afgan. I made it for my grand-niece Emiline Lorraine. I hope she enjoys it for many years to come.

I don't want anyone to worry though, that maybe my own children don't have their own afgans.
I sent Laura to collect everyone's blankets from their beds. This is what she came up with. We also have two on the couch, and one left at grandma's house.
