I have conquered the annoying yarn vomit and managed to start my baby blanket! With my Mighty Stitch held double I just over 600 yards for a blanket. So I did a quick search of my queue and favorites and found the Westport Blanket by Fifty Four Ten Studio.
So after the kids went to bed I managed to get a good start on the blanket. I have enough yarn for the Small size. It’s supposed to be crib or lap sized. I didn’t check gauge (bad knitter, I know) so I don’t know if I’ll end up with the pattern dimensions. Ask me if I care? 🙂
You just gotta love bulky yarn on big needles right? Even with my limited knitting time I feel like I accomplished something decent!
Happy Knitting!!
Big yarn is the answer! It’s so easy to feel productive when it grows so quickly 😀
I begrudge knitting a swatch when knitting a sweater, and I keep knitting the same sock pattern over and over to avoid swatching again, so there’s no way I’d do it for a blanket. I love bulky yarn projects as quick wins.
Swatch? Blanket? For a baby? Why?
