Feather and Fan Knitting for a Cause
I am finally doing it! I am finally crafting for a cause! I have this great blanket in the works that is coming along well, and the pink hat is up for sale in my Etsy shop (buyer gets to pick the charity of their choice for 100% of the cost). I'm feeling so productive! I hope I can finish up my blanket so I can start knitting something for wee ones soon-to-be boy cousin. Weeeeeeee! Maybe this year will be my year of knitting!
The blanket pattern is called Merino Stripes Feather and Fan. I'm not knitting it in a self-striping yarn. I'm just using some acrylic yarn I have around. Bundles of Love requires non-wool yarns, presumably so they may be washed easily. If I knit something for them again in the near future, I think it will be a sweater. I think it'd be much less time-consuming to finish. And, hey. I'm an instant gratification girl, but at least I know that about myself.
Got any good knitting projects going on? I'm addicted to Ravelry and cannot stop adding projects to my favorites!

Boy cousin?? Is Seri pregnant?
Good luck on the blanket. I rarely knit them b/c I also want the instant gratification.
I just can't seem to wrap my brain around knitting. It seems so hard! I will stick to sewing and then buy some handmade Etsy knit stuff. :-D
