Finished!!!

This is a little baby ripple I was making as a gift for a friend. I used a 4 mm hook and 4ply yarn, and it took what felt like FOREVER to get finished. It is really lovely and lightweight though, while also being surprisingly warm, so I guess it was worth it. She doesn't know the sex of the baby, so I went for fairly neutral colours. I'm really pleased with the way it turned out.

Very pretty baby blanket. I think giving a homemade gift is so extra special to the new Mom.

Thanks for all your lovely comments!

Lindsey, it is Sirdar Snuggly dk, a mix of nylon and acrylic which is really soft and machine washable. I used a 4 mm hook.

It is a very lovely blanket. Exactly which ripple pattern did you use, and what Sirdar Snuggly colors are in it?
