Lisa's Blankets

Picture_0113.JPGA 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. |
Picture_0112.JPGThe 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. |

029.jpgThis 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. |
013.jpgA photo showing it as if it were wrapped around a baby...to me it's prettiest this way than when it's unfolded. |
015.jpgI call this one my "race track" one because as I crocheted it, I kept going "round and round and round". |
047.jpgA "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. |

IM000027.jpgIt'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. |
