FO AT LAST!!!
I've been working on this white/blue blanket for some time now. I was going to make it a large, all white and weave some blue ribbon through the eyelets. Well, Caron Simply Soft decided to change their pretty white into their "NEW" white which is a terrible dingy grayish color that I won't touch. So, since I wouldn't have enough white white yarn I decided to make the other half blue. I used US size 8 needles and worked up to 240 stitches which made the measurements I got at 40"x46". It's extra-large and will be a nice gift for someone to wrap their precious child in.
I also finished a Micro Burial Bunting with a ruffled bonnet (pattern from Linda Aker- The Preemie Project Yahoo group's list grandma). This is for a baby less than one pound.

I like the way the blanket turned out. The two-tone look is more interesting than all one color. Great work! The bonnet and bunting are really cute too.
