Once...



Emma’s baby blanket from season 1 of the hit show ‘Once upon a Time’ became an obsession of mine from the very first time I spotted it on the TV screen.  I kept looking for it every episode, as I wanted a closer look, so I could figure out the stitch pattern and perhaps make one myself.  Fortunately I found that Caitlin had posted the link to the pattern to her website on Ravelry. (Love Ravelry) How cool is it, that she knit the blanket for the show and was generous in sharing her pattern with all of us? Sweet! Thank you Caitlin.  The only modification that I made to her pattern was the edging.  I chose a crochet in lieu of a knit finish.
  This little treasure is going to a soon to be baby girl named Camryn.   I hope she loves it as much as I loved making it for her.  Like the Emma blanket, I attached a piece of muslin to it with her name embroidered using floss and edged it with a blanket stitch.  Yarn used; Spud & Chloe Outer

    A very cute blanket for Camryn. I love the name as I have a grand-daughter named Camryn and she is almost 2 1/2 years old.

  8. I've watched every episode of that show and seen Granny knitting but I'm not sure if I noticed the blanket or not. It seems like I would have though. Your blanket is cute and the label makes it extra special. I love the white and pink. And, what a cute name...Camryn. :-)
