Striped Baby Blanket

A blanket for little Uma.

A very dear friend of mine from Seattle days is having a little girl. She lives in Florida and her colors for the baby's room are pistachio and robin's egg blue. I knit her this blanket with multiple stripes up and down the length...it was so fun to knit, even though it didn't turn out exactly as expected...the blue stripes shrunk in the wash. I'm still a beginning knitter...I'll learn. Anyway, as my husband says of things that are homemade and aren't perfect: it's a blanket made with love.
