7/20/22 update - I found the blanket after hiding it away! Ironically enough, at my last update, I was 3 weeks pregnant with our little rainbow, Clara. She will be 2 in September and I need to work on this blanket to add it to her big girl bed once we update her room. rainbow purple_heart

+++++

1/24/2020 update - we lost the baby in July at 9 weeks and I haven’t seen this blanket in months. Wish I could find it so I could finish it and gift it to someone with a new baby.

+++++

6/29/19 update - I need to pick this up again and finish it. I’m currently 9 weeks pregnant with our miracle baby. We never did adopt so this has been sitting dormant since 2013.

+++++

these calculations are no longer correct
completed = 108/ 180 = 60%

unstretched: 40” wide by 24” long
stretched 32” long*

I slightly modified my pattern rows to adjust for SM placement.

Row 1:
k1, YO, K6, (sl2 K1 p2sso), * K6, YO, K1, YO, K6, sl2 K1 p2sso * K6, YO, K1

Row 2:
k8 * P1; K15 * Repeat to last SM. P1, K8.

+++++
