New Blankets!

Hey everyone...so it's definitely been a while since I've posted, but I'm still crafting away.  Mostly crochet to be exact.  There have been so many babies, I just finished my 4th blanket in the past 2 months.  The first one I'm dubbing Baby Blue Stripes blanket.  I will write a new post with the pattern.  It's pretty easy, just time consuming because it's worked in the round, but no holes, so it doesn't work up as quick.


 This blanket is actually for someone, sorry for the bad lighting.  I followed an actual pattern for this one.  I did the pattern with white and a variegated yarn.  You can find it here: http://greetingarts.typepad.com/greetingarts/2010/05/neopolitan-ripple.html

 This is the final blanket I did.  I can write up a pattern if you guys are interested.  It's called the Striped Shell blanket.  It did take a while longer to do because the pattern is a little more challenging.

    They're beautiful! I need to learn to crochet. My boss is trying to teach me but it's not going so well.

    I will have to try to find it...we just moved and most of our things are in a storage unit, so it may be a while.
