Delivery

I'd been working on a baby blanket during the last two months. The recipient, a boy, was scheduled to arrive at the end of July. I finished the blanket by the end of the month, and I just learned the little fellow arrived Monday evening.

Verona, Wisconsin, July 2014. The pattern is not my design; it's an adaption of this one. Here's the yarn (color 26, "Duck Egg"). The first thing non-knitters ask is, "How long does it take you to make something like that?" I worked on this blanket for about 118 hours.
