100 Days of Making: Day 42

Over a year in the making, I finally finished my son's baby blanket - just in time for him to not be a baby anymore. I started this blanket a week before he was born when I realized I hadn't made him one. It was almost done by his newborn session a couple of weeks later. It was in the photos with unfinished parts tucked under. I sort of stalled out on it after that, since babies aren't supposed to have blankets anyway. I have been putting a stitch or two on it lately and finally, just before his first birthday party, I finished the edging. I decided not to do the shell edging to make it a little more plain and boyish as well as saving me some crochet time. Done in Bernat Baby Coordinates in Soft Turquoise.
