Blanket for PODS

My SIL volunteer for an organization - PODS Angels. PODS Angels is a non-profit support group organization for parents of Down syndrome. My SIL asked me if I would like to crochet a blanket for one of their new mommy bundles. I said yes. So, I'm working up a ripple blankie right now made from Red Heart Baby soft. I'm using up the colors I used for Benji's turtle - lime green, variegated purple, yellow, green & white and a solid white. It looks very nice so far - I'll post a picture as soon as I get it off the computer. I'm using a size G hook. I'm thinking I need to start looking for handmade hooks in the letter sizes as they are so small compared to my handmade thread hooks. I like fat hooks.

what a beautiful blanket and what a special organization!

Do they like to receive things like blankets and other baby items from time to time? If so, I'd like to be able to add them to my organization list for www.onesmallthing.org donations; could you drop me an email or a PM thru Crochetville and let me know? I would just need a mailing address to send items to.

Thanks and keep up the beautiful work!
