Notes

08-05-2017

This will be a gift for a friend’s newborn. I chose totally “girly” colors and a touch of grey for contrast.

The pattern is easy and doesn’t need much of concentration during knitting.

To avoid curly edges, I added some garter rows in the beginning and four garter sts at the side edges.

18-05-2017

it’s almost finished. I believe that It would have been better if I hadn’t add edge sts.

I used 3.75mm needles and CO 177 sts which made the blanket smaller and it bothers me a little bit.

For the next blanket I am going to use the same yarn because it’s warm and light but I’ll CO some more sts.

Next stages are washing and blocking!

20-05-2017

After blocking it acquired the desired size 71cm x 91cm.

As I mentioned earlier, for my next project i’ll CO more sts.

22-05-2017

The blanket was given and everyone was happy!
I will definitely knit one more.

…and let’s choose the colors!
