Preemie Baby Blanket. Handmade.


This is a handmade preemie baby blanket. I made this by hand and in my Etsy shop it is 24.99, otherwise known as $25. I used a baby doll to show that it could wrap around a regular sized baby, but I think it would be ideally used for a preemie. 

This would be a perfect New Baby gift. I would suggest a baby girl as the recipient for this gift. This took around 8 days to make and 40 hours or more. I was at my Great Grandma's house, so while I took care of her I also knitted the blanket. I have started a 2nd one of these, but it may be smaller so I will list it separately. 

Thanks for reading! Please go check out the link and view other things in my Etsy shop as well.

Doctor Who Inspired scarf

Doctor Who Inspired scarf.

I am making a Doctor Who inspired scarf for my Etsy shop. As I am doing this I noticed that their are several different ways to make this. The one way that is usually suggested can be improved.
I am working on mine with 36 stitches. The base for the scarf I am doing is purple. A dark plum purple.

This is the first one I attempted to make. It isn't perfect and the next scarf will look much different. I didn't follow a exact pattern, as I said before, I made my own.
I used Burgundy, Green, Purple, dark green, Variegated green, Dark blue, light blue, black, cream, and brown.
For the tassels I mixed and matched them, making it look like a true Doctor Who scarf.
