Crochet Baby Blanket

I originally intended for this to be a music blog, but due to lack of activity and the introduction of labels, I've decided to expand things. In keeping with the title of this blog (and just because I think 3 is a nice, stable number) I'll be writing about music, knitting, and some other topic to be determined.

And now for my first knitting post...

Current Project

Baby Blanket
August 2006 - unfinished

• Type: crochet
• Stitch/Pattern: crosshatch stitch
• Needle: size G crochet hook
• Yarn: TLC Baby

A friend of mine had a baby recently, so I've taken on the daunting task of knitting a blanket for the little guy. I usually stick to scarves, but I'm starting to branch out. I think of this as just a really wide tri-color scarf. I still have a long way to go and borders to add. (Haven't quite figured out what that will look like yet.) Hopefully I'll have the finished product ready by Christmas, but I'll be happy if this thing is done before the kid grows up.

(If you noticed the baby booties in the first picture, that's something I'll get to in another post.)
