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.

A very unique baby blanket for a baby who's nursery was done in bright primary colors.  This blanket was in my head but did NOT look like this, although this is what it eventually evolved into.

The reverse side.  It (accidentally) turned out to be reversible, having quite a different appearance between the two sides, although I hadn't planned it to be that way.

This starts blankets that are gender-generic.  This was my first baby blanket for Gracie.  The outside shape didn't come out right but I learned what I did wrong (after I had finished it) from my Aunt Sharon.  It is more the size to cover an adult while sitting in a rocker/glider.

A photo showing it as if it were wrapped around a baby...to me it's prettiest this way than when it's unfolded.

I call this one my race track one because as I crocheted it, I kept going round and round and round.

A generic sex baby blanket.  After the baby's sex is determined, whichever appropriate color does NOT match can be untied and pulled out, leaving only one ribbon matching the baby's sex.

It's hard to tell but I used the palest shade of pastel yarn to make this blanket.  It's one of my favorites to use with Gracie as it's so light-weight and soft.
