This it the outline of the teddy bear I have been slowly cross stitching on the blanket. Hopefully, I finish before the LO gets here. I try to do a few lines a night but my hands hurt soo much right now.

I love the colors! I think I want to put a lacy border around the end but I may have to wait until after the baby comes.

Single Crochet Seagrass Blanket

I finally finished crocheting  the blanket I have been working on since the end of January. I love the colors. I bought the yarn at AC Moore. The color is called Seagrass and the brand is Red Heart. Its has ton of colors that I think are suitable for a baby boy with out being to babyish. I like the yellows, greens and blues that jump out at you. I single crocheted the entire blanket. I am having a internal debate with myself deciding if I should make it larger or not. Right now, its about 30 by 30 inches. I have been searching online to see any blankets with cross stitching on the blankets. I would like to add a brown bear to the blanket with cross stitch. I am concerned that the back of the blanket might become messy looking. I guess that's the benefit of being able to call it the backside or wrong side of the blanket. I will probably post pictures in the morning when I have better lighting. I think its time to start working on my swatch of the month. I want to do something that ties in with Valentine's day.

I have been working on this crochet blanket for 2 weeks. I'm not sure how big I should make it. I am going to double it over the next week. I learned how to create the pattern while watching my favorite show Knit and Crochet Now on CreateTV. Click here and it will take you to the video.
