I am currently obsessed with making a new baby blanket. I liked the pattern on this website:

However, I wanted to use 6 different colors, and I couldn't go against the "grain", so to speak. So I modified it into strips. I started making it with a garter stitch on the sides, but after knitting for way too long, I found the seaming was not going to look the way I wanted. So I pulled out a week's worth of hard work, and I'm sick over it. I'll be using the mattress method for joining, which I haven't used before, so it'll be a nice experiment. Here are my colors:

All the colors look so cute! Sorry that you had to rip out all that knitting. Doing that always breaks my heart. The pattern that you are using looks fabulous!! I can't wait to see how it's progressing. (After the Big Day of course!)
I didn't know you had a blog!
Is that Dale of Norway yarn?
Good eye! Yes it is. It's called Stork and it's 100% cotton.
