Finished Object: Sprial Baby Blanket

The guidelines from the Craftivity book are sort of fast and lose.

It gives you guidelines for making circles and spirals with cotton yarn.

Here is one from the Pending Sanity blog.

I used some acrylic, and crochet semi-lose, so some of the circles didn’t lay flat. When that happened, I decided just to make it random wedge textured.

Since it is still slightly chilly here, I’m working on my next project. It is the “Perfect Periwinkle” turtleneck from Stefanie Japel’s _Fitted_Knits_. I cast on with Ella Rae Romanian Wool, Color 101, last night. I received it from my mother-in-law, Diana, for a Christmas present.  The color is a a nice darkish grey/slate blue.
Maybe I should joing the FittedKnits Knit Along? It has some good ideas for decreasing the 5-inch turtleneck to a 2/3-inch neckline since it is a sleveless spring/summer top.
