Baby Blanket in Progress...

This is my current project...

A baby blanket made with Red Hear Soft Baby Steps yarn.in Binky Prints. 



I'm having fun making this one. I struggle with a pattern on this one. They all seemed to be too lacy, (holey) or too textured, (wafftel Stitch) and it didn't show the texture with this variegated yarn.  



So, I am just doing my own thing with a sc than a dc in the next stitch and so on. I'm loving how it is turning out. I am stitching in the back loops only. It's a very TV watching friendly pattern that is turning out so pretty. 



I'm not sure what edging/border I will use but I have a pretty soft yellow yarn for the trim.
