FO: The Heirloom Shell Blanket Deadline Is Met. Resume Breathing. Splint Fingers.

I'm plowing through the deadlines over here.  This baby blanket had to be finished by Monday evening, no matter what.  Even though the "what" included calloused fingers and lack of gym time.

I will never, ever knit this blanket again.  It's pretty and all, but it is endless and by the time I reached the finale of attaching that fracking border, I wanted to strangle myself with it.  I was grumbling so much the cat wouldn't even cuddle with me.

Anyway, deep breaths.  No bad knitting vibes as this flies out to the waiting baby girl. 

I'll take my petty revenge on the blanket here by showing you all that which we fear most might leak to the masses:

BATHTIME PICTURE!

By the way, who are you generally knitting for? Just friends and family, or do you sell your work as well? :)
