Pinwheel Blanket!
So in celebration of my nephew being born I am releasing my latest pattern!
You guys voted for baby items and this is the first of a few! (oooh hey now I can use all that blue yarn I have!! woo hoo!)
When that vote came in I was pretty happy, it was good timing, and kinda has kicked me into gear to get some things done!
So I give you:
The Pinwheel Blanket!
Knit up this cozy and unusual recieving blanket for the newest little one in your family. It’s sure to take its place among the special and cherished textiles in your collection.
Use the pattern on a larger loom and knit yourself up a rag rug! Or knit it up on a smaller gauge loom and make a hot pad or placemat. This versitile pattern is a great way to stretch your skills and knit in new directions!

This is great. I love it. It reminds me of the peppermint candies.
I wanted to see baby pictures…wahhh. I love the rack for the baby blanket.
Denise,
I just posted the picture of the pinwheel blanket I loomknitted, in two of the groups I belong to. (rakeknitting and dalooms) and so far it has been a success. I am sending them to your site when they ask for instructions. Thank you for being so creative. Maria

I ordered this patter last Tuesday, bought yarn and loom on the way home from work. It’s Sunday and I’ve just backed it with candy cane material to make it a pillow cover. You can see it at my Flickr page http://www.flickr.com/photos/ellenceleste/4086187571/. Thanks for designing such a terrific pattern.
