Baby Blankets 'R Us

it's baby season and i've got another baby shower to go to.  so i made a pinwheel blanket but only found the knitalong after i had finished it.  a knitalong i could have actually joined!

it's hard to tell, but i did three strips of 6 rows of garter stitch around the edges and then finished it off with 1 row of single crochet in lavender and 1 row of a single crochet picot stitch that i made up (or unvented probably) in a darker purple.  i thought purple would be a nice alternative to green and yellow.

sorry for the lousy pictures.  in other crafty news .... look what i bought.

i'm afraid to try it without having someone actually show me how.  the roving is too pretty to fuck around with.  know what i mean?

i'll tell you about my trip to portsmouth with the girls later.
