I play much better than this. |
The pattern is an intarsia, which is a skill I have yet to learn, but since it is a simple block pattern, I figured sewing together squares would still look good.
I didn't want to do granny squares (not that they aren't fabulous) because I thought it would be too whole-y for a baby. So I went on a hunt to find a square pattern that would work and found this awesome washcloth pattern and got to work.

Enter Krista's baby shower.
The shower was peanut themed. So. Cute. |
There were baby pictures of Krista and Steve on each table. |
And the glowing Mama-to-be.
Krista has a hilarious blog on her pregnancy here. You should definitely check it out.
Here's the completed Tetris blanket:
I loved how it turned out! I think it's perfectly nerdy. I wanted each shape to be outlined so I sewed the individual shapes with the same color then sewed it all together using yellow yarn.
I had a great time at the baby shower and a great time making the Tetris blanket for little peanut. : )
Also HAPPY THANKSGIVING! I'm thankful for my adorable nephew Garrett who has his first Thanksgiving today!
What are you thankful for?
