As I mentioned in an earlier post….baby blankets for all my friends who have given birth lately. A few have still yet to be given their rightful owners…but I thought I would post these pictures while BabyS was sleeping and I don’t forget…
The pattern | The result |
I used my favorite blanket pattern by Pickles http://www.pickles.no/p-veg-helseteppe/ Knitted in Babyull by Viking | |
I wanted to make a stars and stripes blanket, but couldn’t find a pattern. As I couldn’t decide which color I wanted as the main color I wound up making this one a reversible on, like the one I made for BabyS. Also knitted in Babyull by Viking | |
I’ve wanted to try out the pattern for Mor Signe blankets – knitted diagonally in stead of strait up… While surfing, I came across this beautiful blanket. Knitted in Ullteppegarn by Gjestal. | |
And my latest creation, a simple blanket for sweet baby Maja. This is a reinvented version of Garnstudios pattern Bundle of joy. Instead of the blackberry pattern I stayed to plain garter stich (I think it’s called) To make the name part, I found a cool font on my computer, typed up the name and saved it as a picture. I then converted the picture into a pattern with knitPro – this is a super online tool! Makes a pattern from most pictures. Don’t remember who tipped me, but thank you! |
Hope the newly made families appreciate the blanket they receive. After making so many blankets the past few months I’m taking a break from my blanket producing days. For some reason I tried out the game Candy Crush Saga and I’m totally hooked!
- have you knitted any blankets lately?
- which model is your favorite?
So off to get me some Candy Crush….
