Main blanket completed 18/09/2014 - just need to do the border!



The colours of yarn I'm starting with:

First section 26/07/2014:


I'm making this blanket for my baby boy. The yarn is a 50% cotton 50% acrylic which is lovely and soft and will hopefully wash and wear well.

I'm using this pattern:

The blanket is about 90cm wide and I think I'll make it about 120cm long as that will hopefully look well balanced

PROGRESS:
27/07/14 This is absolutely flying along and I'm really really enjoying the different stitches and seeing it come on (I have had trouble putting it down ). I decided I need more colours in it and luckily had a pink from another project in the same yarn

Coming on pretty well, my edges are a bit wonky I hope it evens out with blocking. I went and for more wool, sadly no other colours so will just have what I have!


Progress 16/08/2014

I have actually added a hot pink and a pale purple, I dont' have a lot of them but I think it works well

It is so so so much quicker than doing my big sofa blanket!

Thanks, I will need to get more yarn so not sure I may add some more, thinking maybe a paler blue if they have one as I'm worried it will be too dark, I'll have to see how it goes. I'm struggling a bit with trying to be random and not knowing what comes next

Added project details to my first post - was rushing out early when I just put the pics up!

That looks amazing! I want one for me!

Looks brilliant, I want to start another now!

You inspired me to stop looking at that pattern and actually do it! How many colours did you have in yours?

Updated first post with todays progress!
