Another solid fleece, and this one was hard to find a color combination. I considered pink, but figured I should keep it gender neutral. Two rows of Pound of Love yarn in White and one row of Vanna’s Lion Brand yarn in Dark Grey… Continue Reading “Blanket 29”
I have several posts churning in my head, but little time to post them, so for now, you are stuck with another blanket post. With the fleece blankets, there are three ways to fancy them up: Awesome print Creative stitching Interesting yarn As creative… Continue Reading “Blankets 27 and 28”
