Today's edition of Works for Me Wednesday sponsored by Rocks in My Dryer is about baby gifts.
Now I don't know about you, but I go to a LOT of baby showers. And it is customary to bring a gift to every shower. Averaging $10 a shower (for a cheap gift) gets expensive fast. What to do?
Well, I picked up a hobby I learned when I was a kid. Crocheting. Add a little older-and-wiser mathematical knowledge and voila!
Easy, unique, and special baby blankets! With some mathematical help from my handsome husband, I created the crochet pattern for these blankets and I think they turn out pretty well! (The pink and blue blankets pictured are for a set of twins :)
Plus, they are soft, cuddly, machine wash/dryable, and they make babies happy! As evidenced by Evan modeling for me:
Sweet and special - hey that works for me!
May I have a copy of your pattern? I promise it is NOT to sale but for personal use?
ReplyDeleteThanks.

I can personally testify to the soft cuddliness of that purple blanket. ;-) I didn't realize you created the pattern yourself! Awesome! I never was able to figure out croqueting, but at least I'm figuring out my sewing machine. :-)
ReplyDeleteHi Dolly,
ReplyDeleteI need an email address so I can send you the pattern. Please contact me and I will be glad to send it to you!
