fishing for ideas

i got a couple of skeins of this beautiful, soft yarn from Sandy, and i need ideas for a project. this yarn is really really nice, so i want to make something that will be used for longer than it takes a baby to grow out of a sweater :)

any ideas for projects/patterns?

(needless to say that it's for the baby... also, i can get more yarn of the same brand, so it can be a larger project)

  1. oops....a picture of the scarf I made for Megan of the remaining yarn on the Transatlantic Family blog. It's very nice and I think you can get it at JoAnn fabrics.

  4. i think i'll go for a light blanket, with this pattern, alternating the color i have with "natural" and "taupe" as the two other colors. now i just need to figure out how much yarn i need, and take a trip to Joann (craft store).
