Plaid Baby Blanket
Plaid Baby Blanket
Pattern by: Jo Sharp
Found in: Weekend Knitting
Yarn:Young Touch Cotton DK by Etelle, Colors #012 (blue), #008 (yellow), #027 (beige) and #025 (ecru) (Sorry, don’t remember how many skeins I used!)
Needles: (Sorry, don’t remember!)
Gauge: (Didn’t measure)
This was a gift for my cousin’s new baby. It was one of my first colorwork projects (silly to do it in a cotton), hence very uneven stitches, as you can see in the up-close photo:
I think that overall the blanket turned out pretty well, though, especially considering that blocking didn’t do anything but get the wrinkles out. I don’t think the baby will probably notice the uneven tension, anyway.

Georgeous! Did it take as long as it looks to knit.
