The Hungry Caterpillar

I made this blanket for a friend that had a baby in July.  These 2 blankets were my inspiration:

I wanted the caterpillar to resemble the book "The Very Hungry Caterpillar" .

 
 
I made the blanket using a Pineapple Stitch, and did a single crochet border.  I sewed the caterpillar body onto the blanket.


I'm pretty happy with how it turned out, and now I'm ready to work on a smaller project.



For more detail, this project is on Ravelry.

Brown Bunny Update



I made a bunny hat and diaper cover last summer see this post.  My friend emailed me some pictures of her son in the outfit several months ago.  I am slow at updating this blog.


 
 
 
I think it turned out good, and this little boy is very cute.
