contest entry

Sunday was the deadline for the Lion Brand Vanna's Choice contest, and I just slipped in under the wire. I finished the baby blanket Sunday morning, took pictures, and sent in the contest entry later that evening. The results will come out around May 1.

Here are photos of the finished blanket:

    Very nice! That's the coolest knit thing I've seen in blogland. Granted, I don't look for that many knit things in blogland. But this is still the coolest.

    Thanks, guys! I've had so many nice comments here and on Ravelry. There are probably many, many great projects entered, but it sure would be fun to win.
    Phil, it would be great to talk with you soon-

    Very cool, but I think you should have knitted something out of that very hip, retro book you got for Christmas...
