Pattern: Hearts And Stars Blanket by Zoë Mellor from Adorable Knits for Tots

Size: 70*90 cm (28"*36")

Yarn: Mandarin Petit color 337 (orange)

Yardage: about 235 g (870m)

Needles:
3 mm
Gauge:
24 sts 37 rows in moss stitch = 10 cm (4")

The yarn and the book were a gift from my co-workers
(Trollmamman among others) when I was sick-listed during my pregnancy.

We slept on the blanket for two nights so that it would have our smell. The Wild One was wrapped in it when she was less than 30 minutes old and it seemed to bring her complete comfort and security her first three or four months.
