The Yarn Harlot always seems to get her baby blankets done by the time the babies arrive with one exception (a set of early twins). I, on the other hand usually have a goal of the baby’s second birthday. So far, I’ve completed them all by this time. The nephew is no exception. He turned 2 in mid-November and his blanket was finished.

When I first learned that his mom was pregnant, I started immediately on a pink/white/chocolate blanket since she LOVES pink. I finished that blanket, but alas, he turned out to be a wonderful bouncing super fun sweet boy! So, in due time, I wrapped my mind around the fact that he really should get his very own blanket. I’d been eyeing this cable blanket by Debbie Bliss for awhile, but I definitely wanted to make it in blue. So, this was a perfect fit! It was a little more work than my average blanket and the nephew is one of my favorite babies. And before, you get all Judgy McJudgerson that I shouldn’t have favorites, look at this face.

Ps. Happy Thanksgiving, Everyone!
