But, I did finally finish up that baby blanket...just needs a baby now!
This one used 100% Baby Merino 3/15nm yarn from Colourmart paired with some size 6(US) needles, Signature Arts Circulars if you are interested. I called her Simple Slumbers as she was a pretty easy knit, center start square and if you look REALLY closely you can see that there are 8 nupp hearts, some garter stitch, feather and fan and a beginning of knit two together, knit the same two stitches together repeat until you get tired of it!
I tried taking some more "artsy" pictures, none turned out the way I wanted, for inspiration you should look at this post, now that is a fabulous picture!
I am still trying to decide what should be next on my needles, I do have some "oh my this yarn is going to make my eyes bleed but TDQ loves it" socks on the go, but they are completely mindless knitting and not what I want. Does anyone have any ideas for me?

Lucky baby :-). Are you in the mood for lace or something else? Sunflower Designs "Argonath" keeps whispering to me - perhaps you hear it too? Or from a lace view.....well that list is very long and just keeps growing! But just to rattle off a couple of possibilities there's the quick and easy "Dover Castle" in fingering weight. Or for something bigger there's the Bad Cat Mimosa - can't recall if you've knit that one :-)
Your blankets are always the best! Sounds like you need to trawl the Ravelry patterns for inspiration. There are some lovely new shawls around. Have a look at the completed shawls in the 12shawlsin2012 group. Some wonderful inspiration there.
