Henry’s 8-month Photos

You may recall the Hudson Bay inspired crib blanket I made for my nephew when he was born. My sister, Rachel, takes lovely portraits of children and families. She has been taking photos of Henry every few month to send out to the family. My blanket made an appearance in the 8-month photos she recently took. These are about so cute I could die. I’m one proud aunt!

A Blanket for Henry

Last Monday, my new Nephew, Henry, was born. He is just about the cutest infant I have ever seen.

Every winter I usually tackle one or two knitting projects. I’ve never become particularly skilled, but I try a new challenge every year. Perhaps that would explain why older women are always so good at knitting. This year I made Henry a Hudson Bay inspired crib blanket. I found the project over on The Purl Bee.

Pendleton blankets, including the Hudson Bay, have been everywhere in home decorating for the last year and I saw no reason Henry should be left out of this trend.
