Alaina's Baby Blanket

Hey Folks! I am happy to report that I finished up the baby blanket for my neice Alaina! I'm sending it off in the mail tomorrow. So, I took a few pictures to share with you all. I have to say, it's about the EASIEST thing in the world to make! My daughter would now like me to make her one!

Here's a shot, not a very good one, of the border that the pattern creates. I've used this pattern to make a ton of washcloths and usually the edging is rather even on both the increasing and deacreasing side. This time however, it was not as pronounced on the decreasing side. But it still looks lovely! I know Alaina and her Mommy will both love it!

Everytime I finish something I always get "Could you make me one?". My sister would like a simple wrap and she's looking for some cashmere yarn for me to use. She's buying the yarn so......I get the pleasure of working with whatever she picks! FUN!

In my round about surfing on the net today I came across Sea Silk mentioned.....I think on Yarn Harlot's blog. It looks beautiful and sounds really nice! Anyone have any experience with this yarn? I'm gonna go see if the LYS has any of it so I can feel....and smell it!

And of course, it would be a good post if I didn't include a picture of my little rascals! Dave bought both the kids a new outfit this morning. Davey's outfit it a sleevless tee and shorts....he's almost 4....it's sized 12 months!!!! Just to give you an idea of why we call him Little Man!

Happy Knitting! Thank you, that is all!
