First FO for 2008!!
I have FINALLY finished the baby blanket!!
Seaming this baby up was really off-putting, so I had to force myself to do it. Last night at 10PM I got a bug up my ass, pulled out my needles and started. I thought "oh, it should only take me about an hour or so" HA! I always seem to think I can do things faster in my mind then they actually take *well, with the exception of THAT. THAT I want to last much longer - laugh*
Anyhoo.... FOUR HOURS LATER!! I had finally finished!
Pattern: Lace Christening Blanket from Vogue Knitting Baby Blankets
Yarn: KnitPicks Shine Sport, 12 skeins of Silver Sage
Needles: KnitPicks Options size 5
Notes: The pattern actually called for each panel to be knit seperately, but I didn't want to do all that seaming, so I cast on all seven panels together and used stitch markers to mark each panel.

It's so beautiful!
Is that a blocking board underneath or some fancy graph paper?
very impressive! :-)
That blanket is simply stunning. You need to bring it Wednesday night to show it off!
Absolutely stunning!!! I can't wait to see it. This is most certainly a new heirloom piece for the new baby.
