This is awesome. My son received a donated quilt during an ER visit a couple months ago. It inspired me to learn to crochet. I'm on my third blanket now and when I get five, I will be making a donation. I'm pretty excited. Congrats!
You always make me ugly cry ??. What a beautiful announcement. I wish you nothing but the best healthiest and happiest 9 months ever. I can't wait to see baby Roan. ??
Thank you! I will also say that knitting has been very helpful for me this pregnancy. I get so anxious and stressed out and the knitting calms me down. When I just want this blanket done, or this baby here, this blanket reminds me that things take time. Patience. Care.
That's beautiful!!! Maybe I'll try to pick up knitting again. I made a hat once, it wasn't hard, but it took a lot on concentration on counting your stitches and such. But as pp mentioned it was a fairly quick project.
Congrats! I lost a son too at 25 weeks pregnant and am expecting my rainbow in September. We were given a baby blanket for our loss baby too.
I would really encourage knitters and crocheters to join a site called Ravelry.com It is free and awesome with a billion patterns and groups to join on every subject from your favorite tv show to moms who have lost babies (HAPL) healing after pregnancy loss. You can find friends in your area, join knit alongs, post your finished projects, list your yarn and hooks or needles, it is such a fun and diverse site. There is lots of support there too. I'm just a member and nit affiliated in any other way. I just happen to love it lol!!!

Thank you! I've still got a ways to go before I finish it up. Hoping to have it done in the next week and then moving into another.
Any knitters on here? I'm wondering if hats are difficult.

Beautiful! ?
And hats are not that hard. They actually a fun project because it doesn't take long before they're done. ?
Ashley Roan·
Excellent! I'll have to watch some YouTube videos and practice.
