Stripey Blankey

This is the baby blanket that will go along with the blueberry hat as a gift to the new mom and baby.

This was a really simple baby blanket, but it came out not too shabby. I learned a bit about gauge as the edging is wider on the sides than on the ends. I'm still not quite ready to knit a gauge patch for each project, but I see the need now.

I liked working with the cotton yarn, it was soft and when all knit together created a really nice feel. Plus it was was super easy to wash which will be a bonus for the new mom.
