Bubble Gum Pink Hearts Baby Blanket

I just finished crocheting this baby blanket. I use Pound of Love yarn in Bubble Gum pink. The bobble heart pattern came from a book called "200 Stitch Patterns For Baby Blankets". The pattern was for a 6 inch square, I just added more stitches to make the blanket in one piece.

Thank You Note!!!

I received a very nice thank you note from a new mother today. Her new baby boy was given one of my cuddle sacks with matching hats while in the hospital. I treasure each personal thank you note I receive. They give me such a warm feeling and I know I made some one warm and happy.

Left-Over Yarn Baby Blanket

I had several small balls of yarn left-over from several other blankets and projects so I thought to make a multi-colored baby blanket. Here is the results. I used the twin stitch pattern.

Ripple Baby Blanket

Here is another baby blanket finished. I used a ripple pattern where you crochet in the back of the stitches. It gives it such a nice texture.

Bernat Baby Jacquards yarn.

A few weeks ago I was crocheting a baby blanket with Bernat Baby Jacquards yarn and ran into one skein that I had to stop and cut out bad yarn 19 plus times. I finally threw it away and wrote to the company with a complaint. They then sent me 4 skeins of their yarn. Yeah! It was like opening a Christmas present today. Thank you Bernat Yarns!
