Yet another blanket is in progress. This time I get to keep it, as it is for baby #2, due in a week.
I started this on the 8th October, so I doubt it will be finished in time for the new arrival - unless of course it delays it's arrival for a couple of weeks!
Debbie Bliss Baby Cashmerino again, this is what I planned when I started....
I am using Lucy of Attic 24's Neat Ripple Pattern again, but this time using the series of integrating stripes she used with her most recent ripple. Each set of 4 rows takes about 25g of yarn. The blanket is 10 repeats of the pattern using a 4mm hook.
It has been growing slowly... as of 17th October
and then today, 22nd October
I've changed the colour sequence a little, as I needed to buy a couple more balls of yarn (not enough gold/yellow to make a set of rows and it needed the yellow), but I should have more than enough to complete it now.
I'm still not great at project monogamy, so I've also been working on a little cardigan for our Jubilee year baby. Beyond Puerperium - 0-3m in fingering weight.
and some matching socks
I've 20g of yarn left, so I reckon I can squeeze a hat out of the skein of sock yarn (The Yarn Yard Toddy in Jubilee).

I had to reread what you'd written a couple of times.
Congratulations!
Beautiful blanket...
A week! Oh my! Good luck Roo!
And what a lucky babe to wear that crrraazzzzy jumper - I love how the colours pop here and there but not everywhere! And as for the blanket.... it is just "so Roo"! FAB! :D
Love the way the blankets turning out!
