Hello Friends,
How are you doing? I think we are getting closer to Spring now I can feel it in the air today. I am hopeful anyways. Today I did some yoga and felt very centered and peaceful and then did some readings for my courses that I am taking online. I also worked a little bit on knitting the baby blanket for my cousin and happy to have finally finished one repetition of the basket weave pattern for the baby blanket. I found out that they had a boy last week so that was very exciting! and it also means my needles should be clicking away much faster so I can get the blanket to them before her grows too quickly! then I would need to make a much larger blanket! Here are some photos below of the blanket, hope you like it so far! :)
I am using a pattern for the basket weave baby blanket found at the blog Stockinette. It is a great pattern and I find it easy to follow. Check it out if you want to knit one too !
Have a great day!

Like the stitching in the blanket. Don't think I've tried that one before.
