Hi Everyone:
Well, after knitting about three rows using my circular needle on a baby's blanket (Red Heart) Baby Cloud, blue, I decided to rip it out because as you can see in the picture it was tangled somehow I there was no way to fix it. This is for a newborn baby should I cast off with 100 stitches? I'm thinking that would be good enough...also want to know where I could get appliques with initials on them, I want to have them on alphabe building blocks and sew them on one corner of blanket the baby's initials are AJ and that is what we all call him, he is olur church members little baby..

Good Morning. Adorable little angels.
And let me also say "been there done that". Yes BAby Clouds works up so soft. Great blanket.
Here is my hint for "finding the first row". I tie small colored yarns on the first row. It is easy to see them and to remind you which way it should be facing, I only use cirs, no more straight needles. Well except for DPN.
Can't wait to see this blanket finished.
Don't be hard on yourself. We are all members of the RIBBIT club.

I would love to find the "do over" button and be armed with what I have learned this time.
I would do so much differently.
I would give more and ask for less. I would walk slower and "see" more.
And I would hold onto the out stretched hand and never let go.
That would be my do over. What's yours?
