Thank you very much. I was looking for "boy" motifs for a blanket for my grandson, and this will be perfect!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you like it! Thanks for leaving a comment, I hope your blanket turns out well <3
ReplyDeleteHi Teena, I really enjoyed your pattern, like Meegan I was looking for something for a blanket for a boy and its come up really well. I am currently starting my own small business selling knitted and crochet items and wondered if I could use your pattern as part of an item I'm selling. I would put a note on the page saying the pattern came from you and I could add a link to this page if you'd like. I totally understand if you don't feel comfortable with that and I'll use something different. Best Wishes, Josie
ReplyDeleteYes, that's fine, especially if you link to the pattern. And I would love to see a photo of the finished blanket! Are you on Ravelry? I am Rosycolour. :)
DeleteHi, Teena.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad to find your blog - I've collected several of your patterns in the past few years. One of my favorites is the Frangipani Flower, which makes me smile every time I see it. Thank you for your lovely work. I am excited to find your Star Granny square. I, too, am planning to make a baby blanket for a boy - no one in particular, but since I have several for girls on hand, i thought it would be fun to make a boy's blanket with each square a different design. Please keep up the good work.
On your Blue beanie, i'm enough of a novice to wish for a little more instruction. Did you begin at the crown or the brim, and how many stiches around? US Terms, please. Thanks.
