Baby Blankets

Some Pictures of different baby blankets i have done.


 This one is cream and lilac, think it was my first attempt at a granny square blanket





This blanket i made as part of my sons nursery 'world around us' thingy, they send them all off to an orphanage in romania at end of Jan.
Took me 2 weeks, i get bored very easily, so gave up rather quickly... the wool was donated to the nursery

I am rather please with the way it turned out, and i only had to buy 1 more navy wool to get it to that size.



I love this blanket, although the pictures are not of it completed. i added on little pink bows about 5 rows up, so it could be folded over or out flat and would have them as a nice border.
The blanket looks small, but it stretches out and is made to fit a car seat - the recipiant said it fits perfect in their pram

  1. I'm jealous of your crocheting skills, when I make these kind of blankets they always end up skewey. Fantastic work. Jaqui x
