'Easy Does It' Baby Blanket Reviewed by Courtney Whitehead on 2008-01-27 ****
I made this blanket nearly two years ago, and it turned out beautifully. It was larger than I expected when I started, considering it was my second blanket that I've crocheted, but definitely easy to do. I hope others enjoy as much as I did.
