At last - I have finished the blue and white baby blanket and it is now in the post. I had finished the edging to the blanket on Saturday evening - just in time because Cody Peter arrived early on Sunday morning. How about that for timing? I just needed to sew in the ends and block the blanket. My cork board is not that big, so I ended up giving it a blast with the steam iron, which worked just as well as blocking I found.
Now I have to sort out my stash of yarn and see what I have to make something else with Granny squares. I am still intent on 'A Granny a Day'. Not sure exactly how many I have done so far - I need to have a count up - 180 in the baby blanket, but I have a couple of scarves made up. I am sure to need to 'catch up'.
We had a great time on our cruise - two weeks in the Mediterranean was just wonderful. We stopped at Malaga, Barcelona, Cannes, Rome, Naples, Corsica and Gibraltar.
Look who we 'bumped into' in Gibraltar!!! |
Leaving Gibraltar |
More soon - I promise!!
I like your baby blanket. A little boy will be happy to sleep with it.
