My daughter Valerie is having her baby shower  today, but I gave her the blanket on Thursday when she and her husband Christian    came for dinner.  They loved the blanket of course!

The edging was knit, purl,  knit, on all four sides, while the body was knit 2, prul 2, every row. The size is around 36 inches by 32 inches. This is a simple pattern I decided upon. Since the colors varied, I thought a simple but textured pattern would work well.
