Log Cabin Baby Blanket
More progress on the Log Cabin Baby blanket. Getting lots of knitting done is easy when you're marooned on the couch in a cast. After this strip and its neighbor, the blanket will be 24 inches x 24 inches. My goal is 48 inches square, which is 11 strips on each side. Right now I'm working on my fifth strip. So I have 6 strips per side (or 24 strips) left to knit.
I have a personal goal of having this done for knitting guild in a week and a half, so I can show it off for show-and-tell. The more important goal of having it done in time for the baby shower is much easier to hit, of course. I have over a month until the baby shower. The prospective mother and father are coming over for dinner this week, along with some other friends. I wonder if I should show them the work-in-progress?
A good soul on Ravelry sold me 1.5 skeins of Willow, so I now have all the yarn I need to complete the blanket. I am so happy about this.

I'd keep it a surprise- think of their faces when you show them the finished product!

The blanket is looking great!! I love BSA organic cotton, it's sooo soft. Just saw your post about your leg, I'm so sorry! That sucks!! It's good for knitting, sure, but I hope it heals quickly anyhow so you can get up and moving again.
Thank you for the comment on my shirt- it's a shell at the moment because I haven't decided what to do for sleeves yet :) I can write up a pattern guide, but I'm not sure about the actual pattern. I'll have to look into copyright issues, since the green stitch pattern is from the Vogue Stitchionary- if all's good and I can test-knit it from the pattern before putting it up, I will post it :)
