Josie's Blanket

This is the blanket I sent to Josie with the sweater. It is done up in the colors Caroline chose for Josie's room. The pattern in the Moderne Baby Blanket in the Mason-Dixon knitting book (the first one). The pattern called for using Rowan's calmer yarn, but I ended up using mostly Vanna's Choice and other worsted weight acrylic yarns so I could get the colors I needed in a washable blanket. So the blanket came out substantially bigger than a baby blanket. I hope Josie likes the colors Caroline picked so that she can use the blanket for a long while. It is certainly big enough for her not to outgrow it!!
