Christy's Baby Blanket

One of my best girlfriend's from college is expecting her first baby (YAY!!!). I really wanted to make something for her and when she told me her nursery was ocean themed I knew she needed a ripple blanket.This pattern is so easy I can do it mindlessly while I watch tv, listen to an audio book, ride in the car, travel through time and space with Dr Who.......you get the idea. Plus I think its really lovely.

Little Bit, our dog, loves the blanket too :)

I got the yarn 1/2 off at Michael's so I ended up only paying $2.50/skein (Woot!). It is Caron Simply Soft if anyone is wondering, love the colors in this line. I have been working on the project for about two weeks off and on and am nearly finished with it. Im working towards finished dimensions of 40''x45''.

The pattern I used I found here.

Can't wait to see the sweet little girl this blanket is destined for, and Im so happy for Christy who I know is going to be a great mommy!
