Stripy baby blanket: Tadaaaaaaaa
YES YES Yes it is done 🙂 and it is beautiful specially when you imagine a small cute baby snuggled under ….
The stripy blanket is over and I love how it turned out finally…
specially when I made the border (thank you mum for suggesting the red color…it was an excellent choice I think:) )
If someone is interested in the graphic pattern of the stripy’s border let me know so I’ll post it here …
The blanket measures 70x90cm which is a good size for a baby…
It is crocheted with a 3.5mm crochet hook and the yarn is: nako baby 50%acrylic 50%polyamid … a very soft and soooo good to hook with yarn… If you can not find this yarn in your country I suggest that you choose a yarn with this particular mixture: acrylic+polyamid…it is sooo soft you can not work with something else after you tried it…I swear 😀
I’m so in love that I suggested to my hubby yesterday that we have a third baby to go with the blanket :):) hehe
So? what do you think? Hope you liked as much as myself 🙂
The giant granny is done too…yesterday I finished its border…I’m off to take some pics that I can show you later…
and now I’m sooooooooooo thrilled to begin something new….yaaaaaaayyyy!
Big big kisses to you all!

It looks fabulous! I would love the pattern for the edging. :0)
Huge congratulations on finishing your gor-geous stripey blanket. Beautiful stitching, beautiful border, too! Oooooh, and I love love love the elephant. Is that Padma?
You’ve FINISHED your Granny Square? Wow, that was quick! I started a second one (!), but am not any where near finishing #1 or #2
I love it , & that yarn sounds divine, also would love the pattern for the edging 😀 Can’t wait to see your granny, soooo exciting 🙂 🙂 🙂

¡Beautiful colours!
Please, post it. I love your use of colors and this blanket is just life!!! Thank you.
Hola. Te ha quedado preciosa la manta bebe y es verdad que la frontera en color rojo queda perfecta. Del cuadrado gigante voy por la vuelta 58 y tengo que continuar porque hago el punto muy apretado y no se ve tan grande como otras que veo en flick.
Un saludo.
Very pretty!
Please please tell us how you do your graphic patterns? There’s been some questions on our (Afrikaans) Facebook page “Ons Hekel” – somebody who also can’t write the patterns and want to draw in on computer…thanks 🙂
fantastic , and such patience!!! I particularly like the border edging. Really looking forward to seeing the giant granny, again so much patience required…
magnifique, colorée, pétillante …………. j’adore
It’s so lovely and colorful! The red border really grounds all the colors. Hmm..another baby, huh?? Maybe not such a good idea :p
Simply beautiful – you are such a talented lady!!!!
Beautiful work!
It’s a real cool blanket!! =)
Angie, realmente preciosa :))
Beautiful blanket! It looks perfect!
Wat een super mooi deken. Ik vind het olifantje ook erg mooi. Heb jij daar misschien een patroontje van?
ik denk dat een babietje dat daar onder slaapt, heerlijke vrolijke droom heeft !
This is another beautiful project. I suggest you make more blankets and not more babies! Hee hee!
I have loved this blankie from the beginning! Earlier I had a question about the stripes – in the back loop, now you crochet and then don’t turn and go back but end, and then start a new colour at the beginning?
I was going back and forth, and it didn’t look right.
Thanks, Penny
Wow, it is truly spectacular. I really love the color changes and the edging is just perfect. Another masterpiece!
Beautiful! Lucky Baby!! Would love the pattern for the edging, too! Can’t wait to see the giant granny all finished! 🙂
Lovely as always. Thumbs up for the red border! It really finishes the blankie off nicely. Look forward to your next ta-dah!!! x Pati
it is stunning. i ♡ it. i would seriously consider having another baby to have a beauty like that (and i’m 53! )
Oh – it is so pretty. I love the red border – goes very well with the blankie. 🙂
It is so bright and beautiful! The red border really looks great! Nice work! Best wishes, Tammy
it’s so colorful, perfect for a baby!
This looks amazing!
Beautiful! Lucky Baby that’s going to get this blankie!
Big Hugs,
Tracy

What can I say except…STUNNING! xxx
Simply GORGEOUS! Love all the wonderful colors and especially the Red border! OMGoodness, that does set it off well! Your Mum had a marvelous idea to use it.
Yes, please; I would love to read how you did the Stitch for the Red Border. It is very pretty! Congratulations on a beautiful finish!

Very beautiful and I really love the border that finishes it off!
I love this blanket and his colors !! It ‘s beautiful, but all what you do is beautiful !!!! I’m curious to know what you are doing now …???!!!
Have a good day !
beautiful!! baby blankie and granny done?!! congratulations! I’d better catch up. My friend has just been blessed with, um, “surprise” identical twins (to add to 2 daughters!). I may have to crochet your baby blanket double time!
Lovely blanket!!
Wonderful – especially that the border is not tied all the way to the edging. Really nice.
Wow! Your striped blanket is beautiful! Can’t wait to see the Granny.
Love the border!!
Felicitaciones por la labor terminada, quedó hermosa y muy bien elegido los colores. Cariños
Beautiful blanket, love the border. Yikes, you already finished your giant granny, way to go!! I have not had much time to work on mine lately. Maybe tonight, but its oh so hot right now!! Do you know what you are going to work on next??
Well what a night… yours in the third blog tonight to have a ‘Ta-Dah!! (‘Gingerbread Girl’ and ‘Hook and Yarn’)! This blanket is so vibrant…. your Mum was spot-on with the red border too… and I think a new baby is a fantastic idea.. I shall check back in about 9 months to see what appears! :)x
