Signs of Spring

by Kelly




Spring is finally here, and I can't wait to get started.



I have also finished one scrap busting baby blanket, in the colors of early spring:


I used this great free pattern for the blanket itself, then I just added a single crochet border around the whole thing, did another row of triple crochet, and finished it off with a simple shell stitch.


It turned out pretty well, although my initial reservation when I started this project still stands - the rows of yellow alternating with white are not the best color combination for this pattern, since the blanket looks like it's made of sweet corn. So if you do decide to make a blanket with this pattern, you might want to consider choosing other colors. Just saying.

  1. That edging is very nice. The blanket is pretty. I finally finished mine. I still have to block the green and yellow one.
