The baby blanket is growing. It measures about 35 cm so far. I am aiming for it to be 90 cm long when it is finished. I say aiming as this is a bit of an improvised project. I knew I wanted to incorporate the Marius diagram, but not how and where. I have already had to rip it back a few times. The first time when I realised I wouldn't have enough of the blue colour to use it as the background colour all the way through. Yes, I know, bad planning. But as I only used 90g for background colour to the Latvian Garden Blanket I thought I was definitely in the clear with my staggering 200g of blue. The second rip was because I didn't like how the modified pattern turned out so I decided to try to modify it somewhat different.

A summer dress for pretty baby. I really like this shape as it can be used as a top when baby grows bigger. Knitted with 3 skeins of Drops Cotton Viscose on 4mm needle.

Scarf finally finished. Started this baby in 2008. So took me about 5 years to complete. Looks good, but the yarn was a pain in the bum to work with. Crocheted on needle 3mm with 3 skeins of Can Can yarn.

Started knitting a baby blanket with colour work. The colour work is a slight adaption of Arne & Carlo's Space Invaders and the traditional Marius pattern. On 3,25 mm needles (US size 3).

Stripey, the shrug. Used two skeins of Drops Delight for the stripes. Very pleased with the result.

Stripey, the shrug. Just finished a bit of an experiment. Knitted a tube, then knitted on the rib before I cut it open to create a shrug. Quite happy about it. Love the color combo.
