\nFor December 2012 I sent eight lap blankets with the batch of items for hospice.<\/p>\n

These six are made with my own patterns:<\/p>\n

[grid width=”600″ cols=”*, *” mode=”borderless and vcentered”]\"chevron200\"<\/a>|This yarn is Knitting Fever King Tut, a mercerized cotton yarn. The pattern is Chevrons and Ladders Ripple Blanket<\/a>.~ \"crazy200\"<\/a>|This was a stash buster I made with all my remaining Knitting Fever King Tut. The pattern is Crazy Ripple Blanket<\/a>.~ \"egg200\"<\/a>|This is made from Joann Sensations Rainbow Boucle. The pattern is No Beginning Chain Egg Blanket<\/a>.~ \"filet200\"<\/a>|This blanket is made from Loops & Threads Impeccable\u2122 Ombre. The pattern is Filet Blocks Ripple Blanket<\/a>.~ \"grannyripple200\"<\/a>|This is made from Joann Sensations Rainbow Boucle Patterns. The pattern is No Beginning Chain Granny Ripple Afghan<\/a>.~ \"shellstripe200\"<\/a>|I made this one with Red Heart Soft Yarn Solids & Heathers. The pattern is Shell and Stripe Ripple Afghan<\/a>.~[\/grid]<\/p>\n

These two are made with other patterns:<\/p>\n

\"nikirepose\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The center of this is made with Lana Grossa Niki yarn that I traded with a fellow Ravelry stitcher in California. The pattern is Repose by Carole Prior from Leisure Arts #3137, Big Book of Quick Knit Afghans. The Niki blanket was smaller than I wanted, so I improvised a pattern similar to Repose as a border on all sides and added it with Lion Brand Vanna’s Choice yarn.<\/p>\n

\"reversibleshell\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I had DK weight baby yarn in yellow and lavender in my stash. I used them double stranded to make Reversible Shell Baby Afghan 06-34089 from Lee Wards Complete Library of Needlecraft. I didn’t have enough lavender to make the blanket long enough, so I added top and bottom borders in the yellow in a single layer of shells.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
