Hi Mike, just remember the baby is going to grow and they grow fast so you may want to use 4 balls of the gray yarn, also if it's a new born and depending on when he or she is born they might not get to use it until later next year. Also the parents may want to keep it around to wrap the baby up in for winter, when they may carry or push a buggy or car seat.
I thrifted some Big Twist Value in that exact same color a while back. Recently used it to make a Sophie scarf and some fingerless gloves for someone who can’t wear wool. It washed up so soft! See you next week! ~Brenda
You are fine on the blanket. I made a scrappy baby blanket in a stroller size 30x35ish and it has rows of yarn overs. The stroller size works really well and is the one my niece and nephew use the most. You will be a wonderful Uncle.
Hi Michael, finally back home fm Petra, Jordan. Absolutely amazing. Egypt to see King Tut's tomb. The West coast Norway experiencing real cold weather with snow -5 temps and blizzards. The downside got covid then face it to hubby on our southbound Norway trip on the supply ship. Never see snow here in Sth Oz. Oh yes, the first swatch of that blue for the vest. Love the side detail.
Hi Michael! Just wondering…. Are you going to do another zoom get together in the new year? I only managed to get to one but I really enjoyed it. I love your podcast…. Don’t ever stop!
That grey yarn will be wonderful with the dots blanket. The white is a big "glaring" for my taste, and I think the grey will let the colors shine a bit more. Always up for a bit of Ella! Lorelie is a hoot. Samson & Delilah is another fun one of hers.
Oh great you are here! It's my excuse for putting off my dreaded task of shoveling which I fear will be heavy. We just had drizzle and the temperature is warmer. When the temperature has been low 20 s, 40 is heavenly! Saw NATR last night. His yarn and yours are so nice! Love the baby blanket. I will have to try that sometime. If you aren't a vest person then add sleeves! 🤣. I have Christmas stocking to make too. Mine will be a Norwegian style color work - Arne and Carlos design. See you next week and please don't be my excuse to put off shoveling!! I want to totally enjoy your company and stay put! 😆🤣😂
I've been using Big Twist Yarn in neon colors to knit infant hats to donate to my local hospital (each makes about 7 hats). I am also sewing infant hats from Blizzard Fleece in neon colors and buffalo plaids from JoAnn's.
Another baby blanket that is great is, Rainbow Ripple Baby Blanket by Celeste Young free pattern on Ravelry. I have made several of these it’s quick and easy and great for when they put baby down for tummy time.
Pups are 10 degrees warmer than we are so Kendrick is fine. When we hit those negative numbers, he will be cold just like the rest of us. Kendrick=Beautiful pup
Just a tip. Put a stich marker through the loop of your chrochet when you remove your hook and then it won't unravel.
Pretty blanket. I've had babies, and I've babysat babies, and that blanket won't hurt the baby.

I think the swatch you made with the lighter blue in it looks like a cloudy night sky, which I'm here for. Happy holidays 🎄! Happy knitting 💚🧶🩷
The new spinning can't wait to 🙈 the end product

love the blue with the black!
I just love the colorway of your pink, turquoise and...socks. Beautiful!
Obsessed with your gorgeous waffle blanket! Nice work! You are so talented!

My husband and I chose Ella Fitzgerald's At Last for our wedding song. ❤
Your blue green spinning spool is so wonderful!
