I learned a new knitting pattern from a co-worker I had during the Canadian election period when I worked with Elections Canada.
It was super easy and I set right away to making a baby blanket for one of my friends who had a baby girl recently.
This is the whole blanket with a DVD for size reference.

I modified it a little to make smaller ones for the edge to add a bit more width.
I finished off the whole thing with some crocheted edging. Nothing too fancy, just pseudo loops.
