    Default Finished the baby blanket

    And oh my heavens I will never knit another one again

    It's just a very basic pattern, if anyone's ever made "Grandma's Dishcloth", it's the same thing, only increasing until it's the size of a blanket before you start decreasing again. Lots & lots of mindless garter stitch, knitting row after row until I want to poke my eyes out with the needles
