This pattern is so beautiful. I will have to read back and see if you mention where you got the pattern. Keep knitting! Shower, scmhower. It will be a treasured heirloom, regardless of finish date.

Any handknitted item is a unique and wonderful gift, and as long as the baby can still use it don’t worry too much about the timing.

Your blog is very inspiring. Great pics and very nice work. Did you ever knit up that Drops Circle cardi? That is a beautiful project!

What a beautiful blanket! The colors are just perfect. I love the suggestion about the diapers…if the child is breast fed the parents will be changing diapers so often they’ll never have enough of a supply! Did I miss a post about whether this blanket is your design or a pattern you are following? Is the pattern available…I would love to make one too!

Sounds like a good plan!! I would consider falling asleep during #17 good, too, because 17 is my life number of significance…

I think you made a wise decision. The blanket is going to be so cushy when it’s done. It will definitely be the baby’s favorite blankie!!

My advice is to sit down with your needle and an entertaining movie, and you’ll get the ends woven in. I did this with an intarsia blanket, and it worket out pretty well (I didn’t line it either).
It really looks beautiful. I’m sure they will love it =)

That sounds like a wonderful plan. I had a scheduled C-section and one of the best presents I received was a big pile of frivolous magazines (People, US Weekly, Vogue, In Style – my brain was complete mush in the hospital and there was no way I could have read a book) and some nice lotion, lip balm and hand cream. It was wondeful being able to take those things with me and have some nice stuff to use at the hospital. You aren’t really supposed to take long baths when you are pregnant and it’s a complete no-no for a few weeks after a c-section, so I’d veto the bath bubbles. If you want to get something for the baby, find something practical on their registry or buy them a big box of diapers. People think those sorts of gifts lack imagination, but dude, diapers are expensive. Your blanket will be the imaginative part.
