Even a rainy day is pretty here! We had our first real full on rainy day this month. It was a good day for fresh pastries (for everyone else), working a puzzle, reading, and crocheting.
I was able to finish this blanket for Laura to take home for her Mom. I really liked the way it turned out.
For my future reference, here’s all the info:
The pattern is Bedtime Dreams Baby Blanket.
Finished size is 28 x 41
Yarn is Yarn Bee Soft & Sleek, 5 skeins, 186 yards each, 4 weight. Hook size J. Chain 84
It makes up really quickly, and the stitch density is perfect for a lap blanket. Because of the CH3 at the end of each row, the edges have a nice scalloped edge. There’s no need for a border.
To help her fit it in her luggage, I put it in a large ziploc bag and squished the air out.
Today will be a pretty day. If the wind is amenable, I’ll kayak if I can. Otherwise, we will hike. We might take a trip to Bar Harbor too. So many options!
