This one was for the new son of a colleague. It came out huge and very soft. The stitch I got from a pattern book I had, but the design was different. It was made in two pieces so the pattern fell away from the center. I liked the way it came out.
One of many in a series of baby blankets for friend's children. This one is somewhat unique in that the child himself opened the box it came in as he settled in with his Mom and Dad in his new home.
I tried to make Tina's blanket from colors that somewhat reflected her coloring. She was a blue torbie (A tortoiseshell cat); gray, white, and tiger tan calico. The texture of the yarn hid the stich somewhat and gave it a fuzzy look.
