Doll Blanket

I slept in a bit later today, with the rain on the roof convincing me to stay abed. And as the day progressed my feelings of dizziness started to resolve. Thankfully!

After a lazy morning I finished weaving the project on my Ashford Knitters Loom, cut it off, zigzagged the edges of the panels, and joined the panels to make a doll blanket. I then crocheted to cover the sewn edges and washed and dried it. I think it came out pretty well.  Here is a photo of a panel on the loom, with loops on one side. The loops are joined using a crochet hook.
And here is the finished doll blanket after washing and drying.
I was able to line up the plaid pretty well. 

I am sure I will use this technique again!
