1/13/2011 - Finished in record time. Blocking it now and it measures 27” x 44”.

I ended up following the pattern and repeating the 28 row pattern 5 times to get this length. I’m very happy with it. It matches the size of another baby blanket I have.

The photos don’t do the color of the yarn justice (I was shooting with light filtered through curtains or shades, which changed the color, and I didn’t want to fix in photoshop). The WIP photo is the best representation of the natural color of the fiber.

1/10/2011 - Just cast on 79 stitches (for a baby blanket size) - on size 13 needles (since this is bulky, not super bulky yarn).
