12/26/16 here we go! Baby Benji will be here soon so these needles better fly :-)

12/29/16 blanket is coming along nicely. Just started second skein. Had to waste a bit on the last part of the first skein and first part of the second skein to get the stripes to match. Haven’t measured yet but I think I’m about 1/2 way done.

12/30/16 plugging away. I think if I make this again I’ll add a pattern repeat. Just eyeballing it, it’s looking a little narrow.

1/2/17 all done. Cute pattern. However as written it’s more of a car seat or stroller blanket. It’s only about 27” wide and I knit to make it about 38” long. It’s fine but a bit small for what I had planned. Next time I’ll add a couple pattern repeats to make it wider.
