Baby Blanket (Olive Rose Pattern)

I've just finished this beautiful blanket. The pattern is called Olive Rose blanket from Issue 10 of Simply Crochet magazine.





It measures approximately 70x77cm and is the perfect size for a baby shower gift etc. I have just listed it in my Etsy shop. It's made using Stylecraft DK and I used colours that I had in my stash.

I'm very pleased with how this one turned out and will definitely make more blankets in this style.

One Down...Eleven to go!

The first month of the #crochetmoodblanket2014 is complete! I know I'm a little bit late considering we are already a week into February but I thought I'd post the pages of my diary which document the colours I've used and why.





Please excuse my weird looking fingers!! I'm very happy with how this month has gone and I am growing to love the randomness of the colours I've used so far. The only colour I've vowed not to use is black. I do have a very dark navy and purple though. 

I'll hopefully post some progress pictures of the blanket later in the week. I'm very happy that I started the third row yesterday - I love seeing this project grow! 

I hope everyone elses blankets are continuing to grow and are going well!
