My Sweet Dreams baby blanket I showed you progress photos of last week, is finished! The blanket consists of 20 squares with a border in a white/blue or a white/pink colorway. The soft powder blue and pink colors give the blanket a bit of color without being too overwhelming. Soft, fluffy, and a bit playful is what I’m going for with the color placement.

Sweet Dreams blanket
The colored circles that form the center of each square are framed by either a completely white, or a white/colored square. By alternating the placement of the squares a playful pattern emerges which is surprisingly simple to create.
Eliza yarn
The yarn that I’m using, Scheepjes Eliza yarn, is a 100% polyester yarn which is incredibly soft and hypoallergenic. Perfect for baby projects! Scheepjes Eliza is/was available from Wool Warehouse (UK/International), Knotty House (CA/US) or your local Scheepjes Stockist. Thank you for supporting my work by buying your yarn through the links on my blog. ❤
Like two best friends the blue and pink blankets go together. When was the last time you sat on a bench with your best friend?
Next week I will share the pattern for my Sweet Dreams Baby Blanket with you. Hope to see you then.
With love,
Esther
