knit blanket

I meant to post this months ago, but I've been ill so whoever reads this will just have to get over the disappointment.

I knit my first HUGE project a few months ago. I don't mean "huge" as in "complicated" or "detailed" or anything glamorous like that. I mean I knit something BIG.

I knit a baby blanket for our Pastor's new granddaughter, who is now 9 months old.

(Technical Portion) I used sport weight yarn, held 2 strands together, and knit with size 11 circular needles. I used (what I've been told is basically a glorified dishcloth pattern) a pattern from Donna Kooler's Encyclopedia of Knitting.

It turned out great and the finished product was 50" by 50" in pink & cream.
