The Twin Ta-dah

Hello lovelies,
After a few days break while I waited for a yarn delivery I finished my latest two baby blankets yesterday.
As I mentioned before these are for my sister in law to give to a  friend of hers who is having twins very shortly .
They are the first items of crochet I've ever sold. It does add a bit more pressure to do a  good job but I'm also really pleased to be starting my charity fund raising in this way.

I bought a pretty box to keep my items for sale clean and safe.........

Ooooooh crochet goodness peeking out :0)

Would you like to see what they look like ??

Yes

Good

Ta-dah........

Two soft and snugly baby blankets. Made from Stylecraft Special double knitting.......

They each have twelve different colours .

This one is made up of
Plum, fondant,grape,peach,shrimp,aster,meadow,lipstick,lemon,aspen,cloud and violet.........

And this one is made up of
Raspberry, spring green ,denim ,lavender ,saffron ,pomegranate, sherbet ,bluebell, pale rose ,violet and turquoise.....

I like they way they coordinate but are not the same. The twins  Mum will know who's blanket is which ,but they compliment each other in such a great way...........

I was going to add a few rounds of the colours used in the blocks as a border , but they ended up a nice baby blanket  size without one ( 28" square ) so I decided to go with one round of granny clusters in white followed by my favourite picot  edging.........

I really hope my sister in law is pleased with them . I will let her decide on the price....I'm pretty awful at knowing what to charge for something like this ........

I have to laugh when I think how different they are to the blanket that I was inspired by. I still want to make one like that but I do love how these turned out.

Today was not great for taking photos . When the sun finally  decided to come out late in the afternoon I  dashed outside for a last minute sun shiny, blue sky  washing line shot.......♥♥♥♥♥.........

Tomorrow I'll give them to my sister in law and the box will be almost empty ....but I've already started on something else to build up my stock a little .......I'll be sharing that very soon :0)
Have a great weekend.
