Baby time again

My daughter’s friend had a baby boy last weekend, the card has already been sent but i’ve just finished off the blanket which I have been knitting.



The card uses an image and background papers from Teddy Friends cd by Peerless designs. It’s all printed onto pearlescent paper to give a nice sheen to it.There’s a narrow mat of silver foiled card behind the image.SAM_0915



The inside has the same image suspended on fine wire in an aperture.SAM_0920



The blanket is in white and to finish it off I managed to crochet a single chain into each of the holes around the edge. This is done in pale blue and gives it a nice fresh look. SAM_0925It measures about 27 inches square and is knit from corner to corner, increasing each row until the size is achieved then decreasing each row.
