It’s a perfect day just to stay home in the cool indoors, watch a Lifetime movie and of course, knit, knit, knit. I’m working on a wonderful pattern by Alexis Layton ~ “Radiating Star Blanket” ~ for a baby gift for my hubby’s manager (he and his wife are expecting their first baby). So far this project is fast, easy and will turn out very pretty. I can’t wait to see how it looks when I’m done. I’ve chosen Bernet Softee Chunky yarn in cream for this project, but I’m planning to knit a few more for Christmas gifts and will use organic or wool yarns. This is such a neat pattern and reminds me of heirloom pieces of long ago.
