I am currently occupied with two different knitting projects. The first is a baby blanket using Bernat Baby Chunky Yard, in a charming color, Little Sand Castles. It is a very soft and cuddly yarn. I am using Size 11, straight, knitting needles. My cast on row was 88 stitches and I am using garter stitch for the pattern. The 88 stitches makes a 36-inch width. I am planning to knit it until I have a 36-inch length.
Once I’ve bound off and block, I’m sure this baby blanket will increase to a 38 x 38 inch blanket.
The second knitted project is an adult-size afghan using Buttercream Rainbow Boucle in a Honeysuckle color. For this project I’m using a szie 8 circular needle.
I love the texture of this yarn. This one is done using garter stitch. It just is taking a longer time to complete as it is quite large. When I’m working on a large project, I like to break up the monotony by working on smaller projects. This way I can stay motivated.
