Celia's Blanket

About 2 weeks ago, Suzette told me that we got a new pattern from Carol Anderson who is the designer of "The Wonderful Wallaby" sweater. Carol's patterns, while being great patterns can be quite "wordy," and Suzette challenged me to have a try with this one! She calls it "Celia's Blanket" after her granddaughter.
As I read through it, I thought it sounded like a good challenge and so I set out with 5 skeins of a new color of Encore Colorspun that I love!

The blanket is made by knitting your first square, picking up an edge and knitting the next square. There is no sewing together!

She gives several edge options for your blanket and I did the "picot edge" because I want it to be for either a girl or a boy.

I ended up loving the pattern and thinking of all the possibilities! You can use any gauge yarn and any size needle!

I talked to Carol on the phone this morning and ordered more of the patterns so you can join me with a fun, new baby blanket !
Happy Knitting! Alison
