I recently took a custom order for a baby blanket that is rather unique. It is taking a bit longer to complete because mom ended up in the hospital and life in our home went off the rails for a while. But it is nearly finished and I cannot wait to deliver it. The customer is local, so I refunded the shipping. I really want to see her face when she views the finished product for the first time.
This is a Bavarian crochet blanket, but rather than baby colors she wanted it completed in earthy tones to match the soon-to-arrive little one’s room. I wasn’t sure what to expect but have just been amazed at how incredibly gorgeous this blanket has turned out! This is a photo of the original blanket (we’ve made and sold 2 of these already, very popular!):
The mom-to-be and I picked these colors to work up the custom order, going from 7 to 4 colors:
Once the finished product has been delivered, I will post a photo.
Next up on the custom order list is a really cute elephant rug, pattern can be purchased from IRAROTT Patterns on Etsy:
Isn’t that just too adorable! Boo is shopping for the yarn and going to make it. If all goes well we will make another and sell it in the shop, as this is just adorable.
