Lisa's Blankets

These are photos showing some of the blankets that I have made starting in 2004 (a new hobby for me). Most blankets show 2-3 photos; one showing the whole blanket, followed by one or more showing a close-up section of it. All the various patterns came from my own head, none are perfect but all are unique. Most of them are arranged with crocheted ones together and then sewn ones together and within that, I've tried to keep all the girl ones together and likewise with the boy ones. At the end are photos of the recipients using them.

This was my second one made and has a big flaw in the overall shape of it (that I learned later what I did wrong).  The yarn is soft chenille-feeling and so cuddly!  Gracie loves curling up in it.

This is Emmie's personally-designed blanket.  Different yarn and a fancier style.  (I hope she likes it!)

A close-up of Emmie's blanket folded and with one corner pulled lower to utilize my dark desk as a background to see a bit of the detail put into this one.

Although it's not noticeable in this photo, I made this blanket with three different brands of pink yarn.  I tried to make each square a different pattern.  This blanket is similar to the one with primary colors and is also reversible.  This photo shows the side with the seams open and facing you.

This is the back (or smooth) side.  I made loopy pom-poms and attached at the four, interior corners.

View showing the whole blanket (it is really a rectangle, although this pose makes it appear a more hour-glass shape.

A new style I created. I chained a long strand and then wove it in-and-thru the open row, tying the ends in a bow in one corner.

All of a sudden co-workers seemed to need me to make baby blankets for them to give as baby presents faster than I could get them made.
