Here it is, my latest and greatest baby blanket….. It’s not my finest work, but it will do. The last baby blanket I knit was very complicated, so I decided I would do something easier this time, but I think I over-corrected and selected a pattern that was way too easy… all that garter stitch got wicked boring after about two panels. I know I say this all the time…. but… I should have just quit and frogged right there on panel two when I realized it wasn’t the right project for me, rather than force myself to go through with it.*
And here is a picture of it all laid out. I wish you could feel how soft the yarn is!! It’s called Comfy by Knit Picks. Love it!
