Artist's Comments

This is a commission for a good friend of mine. She is pregnant with a girl.... Being a rock chick / horror fan I made her this blanket, for the baby.

Yes it is a spin on Andy Warhol - why I came to this design I don't know.. Warhol is far from my favourite pop artists. I guess the the pop art surrealist movement got my inspirational juices going.

Anyhoo - it beats the standard cute bears in baby pinks, whites and blues.

Materials - 3.5mm crochet hook. 200g bright pink acrylic yarn, 200g black acrylic yarn, 50g turquoise acrylic yarn.
Each square is 75 stiches by 75 rows.

That is very cool. :heart: How long did it take you to knit it?
I love the colors in the pop art style you did. I'm sure your friend's baby will love rocking out to sleep with that blanket.

Thank you. It took a bit longer than it should have to make it. I was designing it as I went, which meant experimenting with different colour variations. The total completion plus design process took 2 months - that wasn't solid just working on this project though.
I hope she will like it too... the baby is due in September.
Yeah pop art is the way to go at the moment. Its making a huge come back.

Really cool. If I ever have a child I want a blanket like this for him/her. You've been featured in my journal.

Wow! That is the coolest blanket EVER! Lily is gonna look great with this draped over her wearing her little Ramones baby-gro xxx

Hey! You have devaintart account! How cool is that.
Thank you so much about the blanket. I was really hoping you would like it.
I gather Sharron hasn't brought it over yet. My mother-in law is desperate to hear whether you like it or not.... and everyone else has complimented me on my workmanship but not on the subject.
You bought Lily Ramones baby-gro! She is heading for super cool at the speed of knots.

I now have to think about x-mas prezzies! How am I going to top this?
