The latest seekrit knitting project

[nonelvis]

An op art baby blanket for haineux, his wife, and of course the little baby-to-be.



It may look a little misshapen here, but that's normal; this photo was taken while I was wet-blocking it to straighten it out. It looked positively amoebic when I took it off the needles!

Made in Ella Rae Amity, and my first project knitting with two circular needles. It was easy and lots of fun, though by the end the blanket was so large that each row took a good 25 minutes.

The pattern calls for black, but I thought that looked too stark; dark purple seemed like a better color choice, and should still have sufficient contrast for the young'un to see the stripes.

I'm so glad you like it!
