This blanket was made for the new star of the family – the upcoming grandchild (or son or daughter or niece or nephew or great-grandchild depending on who you talk to).  The yarn is Bernat Softee Baby.

Here’s a close-up of the little labels tied on with ribbon…

Danielle loves all things stars hence the star blanket.  I was working on the blanket and Justin asked how to crochet.  I had him make a double crochet and then we thought how cool if each of us crocheted a stitch for this child…so we did.  Corey and Danielle loved it.  Danielle said she doesn’t want to take the labels off.
