Baby Socks

          I made these for the same friend I made the baby blanket for.  They turned out quite a bit bigger than I had hoped, so they are way too big for a newborn.  But I have a feeling he will be wearing them before his first year is over.  I went by a pattern when I made these.  The pattern was a little difficult to understand at first, but I figured it out and enjoyed the challenge.  I love these and I will definitely be making my baby quite a few pairs!

Easy Baby Blanket

A friend of mine had a baby 3 weeks ago.  I made her new little boy a few different things.  One of the things I made was a baby blanket.  I have it folded, so it is 4 times the size shown.  This was very simple for me to make, but very time consuming.  I used the HDC stitch for the majority of the blanket and then finished it up with a shell border.  I'm in the process of making one of these for my baby, but am making it green since I am not aware yet if I am having a boy or a girl.
