I am starting to make good progress, if all goes as planned, I will be finished by this time next week.  This week I was able to attach two rows and knit an additional white stripe and alphabet row.

After much searching (and a little frogging) I opted to leave the corner squares blank.  I knitted each of them in a straight stockinette stitch.

Back to my knitting.

The knitting continues.  I am happy to say, I was able to complete a little more this week than I did last week.  As you can see, I finished and attached a white stripe, completed an additional alphabet stripe and a white stripe.  I usually attach each stripe before beginning the next, but I worked on the white row at a doctor’s appointment – yes it was a very long wait.  I guess I better figure out what I will do with the corner squares now that I am ready to knit them.  Check back next week to see what I decide.

Yes, it has been three weeks since I began working on a baby blanket for a friend. No, I am not expecting a baby.

This week was a bit more productive. I completed the next strip of letters and began on the next border strip.  I will need to block the project but will wait until I am complete to do that.
