Star Blanket

I made a star blanket for an internet acquaintance that recently had a baby boy.

I had some Caron Simply Soft left over from some previous projects so I used that. It's dark country blue, country blue, gray heather and white. I edged the blanket with white in one row of reverse sc, and I used an I hook.

The blanket measures 27" across.

I like it. The pattern is easy. I started this blanket on May 22, in the evening and finished it this morning, May 24.

Blue Jeans Star Baby Blanket

I made this blanket for an online friend whose wife is due to have their first baby around the 21st of September. I chose to make a blanket with Bernat Softee Baby in His Jeans Ombre, a G hook and Beth's Little Star pattern. It's a nice little blanket, measuring about 29" across. It's soft and perfect, I think, for a newborn baby and I can even imagine a little boy carrying this blanket with him. :) I hope it's as loved by this baby and his parents as it has been by me as I made it.
