Over at the top of the right-hand sidebar you will see "Charity Corner." Pete was able to raise $1000 for St. Baldrick's to help fight childhood cancer. Now I am joining in with the Critter Knitter's Knit-a-thon.
I have donated a prize which is on it's way to Wendy. And I have finished my first blankie!
It's a garter stitch blankie knit on the diagonal. I found the free pattern here on the Lion Brand website.
And just to prove that I am getting closer to finishing Liv and starting the Keepsake Shawl. . .
I leave you with Liv's sleeves.
The sleeves for Liv are lovely indeed! You must be so close now! Perhaps we will be seeing a sweater next week?

Keep going! It looks great. Worth all the fiddling.

I would love to know what kind of yarn you used for your charity blanket and what size needles. I love the pattern and am thinking of making the same one; however, I don't really want to use the homespun it calls for. Thank you for any info you can provide. Kristy in SC

What a great blankie! Thank you so much!

Yes, I agree with Kristy in SC. I would love to make the blanket using the yarn you used. Homespun doesn't excite me. Would you let me know what yarn you used and if it's really soft?
Thanks,
dj
