FO Friday: Flower Power

The baby blanket I started a few weeks back is finally done. Hooray!

The pattern is the Pastel Petals Afghan from Modern Baby Crochet by Stacey Trock. I had so much working on this blanket. Simple yet beautiful, just what I like to make for babies.

I used a super bulky yarn (Bernat Softee Chunky) instead of the bulky weight the pattern called for and decided to eliminate the final color of the blanket. The blanket is pretty huge even leaving one color off. Definitely big enough for baby and momma to snuggle under.

The blanket was all wrapped up and shipped off to the new mom and baby earlier this week. I hope they both love it for a long time to come.

Now all I need is another wave of friends getting pregnant so I can make another one of these lovely blankets. :)
