Heirloom Blanket

Ever since I learned how to knit/crochet last year, I have been wanting to make this blanket.

But being an impatient beginner, I couldn't figure out how to read the pattern and I had to be patient to learn the several techniques needed to make the blanket.

I knitted baby blankets for my niece and nephew last year, but knitting a blanket takes too long and I was hoping that crocheting a blanket would be quicker.

I was right. Almost a year later, I was able to finally read the pattern and figure out the technique to make this heirloom blanket for my sister Nikki.

At the time that I was working on the blanket, she didn't know what she was having. Since then, she found out that she is having another boy.

Congratulations!! I hope she likes it!
