For the tenth year, I will be making & collecting handmade baby blankets for the Family Maternity Center at Highland Hospital in Rochester, New York. This rewarding project keeps everyone busy through the cold, snowy days of winter. If you are interested in donating a blanket or two, please email me.
Thanks,
Colleen

I saw this stitch on TV and decided to use it for a baby blanket. The pattern is simple: 2 half double crochets in the same stitch then skip the next stitch. I crocheted a decorative border using the bead stitch!
