Stitch 'N' Pitch a hit! (Phillies, not so much)


Last night's Stitch 'N' Pitch event at the Phillies game was fun (except for the awful play of the home team). My blanket made it onto the field with the Phanatic before the game--there is was on the Jumbotron!--then was returned to me in the stands so I could donate it to Project Linus. I was happy to see that there were many other handcrafted items in the box. Thank you to coordinator Cathy Finley for pulling the evening together.

  2. I was wondering - do you have a pattern for this blanket?

  3. Thanks for your interest in the Phillies blanket. I don't have an official pattern. It's just Tunisian simple stitch with two strands held together. I drew the Phillies' logo on graph paper and used it as a guide for counted cross-stitch. It would work in entrelac also, if you prefer to embed the logo rather than add it afterwards. If you're on Ravelry, please visit the Tunisian Crochet group and search the forums for more information.

    I hope this helps!
