My helper

Asleep on the job but still cute as button, my Heddy is my project inspector.  Here is my latest blanket project which will be twin size when completed.  I am upto 21 inches so far. Also included is an update on my "try to relax "  cat piece since I had my muse at hand.  
I would love to know what you think about my yarn color choices.   I am using lion brand homespun  and caron black medium weight again.  Both yarns are machine washable, dryable and hold up to daily use.  I have done blankets completely with homespun but frankly I really like the body that using the caron or red heart yarn gives the blanket. The medium weight yarn lightens the weight of the blanket.  They are labor intensive because the pattern is not lacy or has holes but the blanket is super warm and cuddly.
I machine wash and dry all of my blanket gifts before they find their new homes.
