After a few set backs, I am finally finished with the Alphabet Baby Blanket that I began a couple of months back. The pictures do not do it justice.
I first dreamed of this project in 2013 after knitting one of the letter B dishcloths by Rhonda White. Needing a baby gift for a shower, I finally began knitting this blanket earlier this year.
I used #4 knitting needles and over 1000 yards of baby sport yarn. The blanket was knit in strips and then sewn together.
I am elated to be finished with this project. For the last little bit was a beast. I just could not quite get it finished and it was too large to travel with easily.
Now for another project. Hmmm, what to knit?

It’s a beautiful blanket, and I love the color choices. I love the idea of making baby garments, because they don’t take as long as adult garments, but I don’t have any babies around me to measure for fitting. The last time I made a baby hat and vest they were too small. Winter is coming soon. I think a sweater project might be nice. 😊
