As soon as my sister told me she was pregnant, I began a mental list of all of the projects I would make for her. This list continues to grow. The first project was to crochet her a blanket. I have been making baby blankets for family and friends for years. I have tried many different patterns, but I always seem to go back to one of the very first blankets I made. It came from a book called, Our Best Baby Afghans. I have used the book so much that the pages are falling out.
It's a pretty basic pattern of shell stitches and V stitches. I have made a few minor adjustments. I use the pattern for the body, but have changed the edging a bit. I like the way the ribbon looks woven through the edge.
It is very soft and cuddly. I hope that Ella likes it as much as I do!
