However, I did just finish a super pretty baby blanket - on size 50 needles - took all of about 4 hours, including the weaving in of the ends. I like it, as I am not a huge fan of pastels on any kid, and this orange and green combo is pretty sweet looking... It isn't overly huge at 30"x33" but, it is a great size for a stroller. One of the problems I always had was I didn't want the kids to be cold, but at the same time, I didn't want the blankets draping on the ground either. I found the pattern on Lion Brand, and I had a bunch of Homespun I wanted to use up, since Michael's had a massive sale and I bought a ton a few months ago.
Detail of the colors - not only is it green and orange, but it also increases and decreases in the intensity of each shade.
Close up of the edging detail... I like using yarn overs to make a built in interest detail.
All pretty and folded up - ready for gifting! I also made the wrapping cord as well.
