Pieces of April

April, makes me think of rain, flowers, new leaves, growing grass, (get those lawn mowers ready) and babies,   Mother nature is on the move as well. It also makes me creative as well. Lots of new ideas to knit, sew and decorate. I get in the mood to clean, clean out, and renew. I am an Etsy seller, although, I have been busy creating, not to sell but to give. I have 3 Baby blankets in the works. See my free patterns if you want to make one of these..

Shell Stitch Baby Blanket Pattern

I have been working a quick Baby Blanket. I got this pattern from a girlfriend. This is a pattern that her mother in law used to make all of her baby blankets. It is a lovely pattern and quick. I like the shells nested into each other, (no little fingers or toes poke through) I have another shell pattern but they are directly on top of each other. I have made this many, many times. Usually I make it in Red Heart yarn, because it is indestructible, I have even bleached a blanket made out of it and the colors did not alter. (Kinda scary) It usually take two of the Super Saver skeins. If you are in a super big hurry try this...I have used two strands of Bernat Baby coordinates in sport weight, this yarn has a little shiny thread like ribbon running along the yarn. In the pictured blanket you can see the little sparkle it gives it, not too much bling. In this blanket I used 4 skeins of Bernat 5.6 oz yarn, 2 pink 9412, two white.
