New UFO: Lotus Baby Blanket

That pink yarn from the 3 Hour Sweater was crying to be used, so I decided to try it out on another pattern. This time, it's the Lotus Baby Blanket.

This is worked from the center out, so that you get that pretty four-petal flower in the middle of the blanket. (Which you can't see yet because I haven't gotten very far along. But trust me. It's there.) It has a kind of tricky magic circle-style cast on, and I always find those first few rows on dpns to be a pain in the ass. But after that, it starts going faster.

As you can see, I'm not very far along. But I think this is the pattern for this yarn. It will make a good baby blanket, don't you think?
