Little Boy Blue by sarahsthreads

Little Boy Blue

I risked life, limb and naptime to get this photo: blanket with sleeping toddler included for scale.

I think it will work for one of the kit photos - there are other shots that show the whole blanket and close-up shots of the texture. Kind of makes me wish I were napping, too!

(Seriously, what kind of crazy mother moves a crib with a sleeping child in it to get better lighting for pictures? Naptime is sacred around here!)

It was worth the risk. That is beautiful light.

Wonderful! This blanket looks like it's just a straight knit throughout, Right? I love the different shades of blue you used. Some of the yarn looks variegated. What are the measurements of it? I looks so o"boy". Really a cute photo with your little guy dressed in blues too. It was worth the major risk...... I know that feeling too. One of our kids NEVER slept as a baby..... When she finally did, the rest of us tiptoes around the house in bare feet. lol.

Sarah - You've done a wonderful job...well worth the risk, I'd say. Children look so angelic when asleep - and this is just a wonderful photo! Well done.

@aglennc It is a fairly simple garter stitch blanket, but it involves a few different colors of yarn, some variegated, some striping, held double in various combinations. I don't actually have the details because I didn't knit them, I just get to take the photos. :)

@sarahsthreads I thought some of the yarns might be variegated. Love it.

Oh, you mentioned knitting socks. I knit a dozen or so pair for my boyfriend, now husband, when we were in high school. See my photo: http://365project.org/aglennc/365/2014-09-10 Either my husband or I made up most of the patterns I used.
