Baby Shower...

Last Saturday I went to my very first Baby Shower.  Lots of people complain about American traditions coming over here, such as baby showers, trick or treating etc., but I love them.  It was a lovely afternoon with bunting, balloons, a pram shaped piñata, games and presents.  I made Ruth, the mummy-to-be, this blanket.

It was a challenging but fun knit to do.  I got the pattern from Ravelry, here.  Unfortunately it was one of four hand made blankets to appear on the day but mine was sufficiently different to stand out I think.
