Baby Blanket-Horrible Purple

I have been working on this baby blanket off and on for a long time now. I usually love knitting baby blankets, thinking of the new life that will use it but this one has been hard to knit. I really think it's because it's main color is purple. I can't stand looking at that color while knitting. The pattern is called, 19th Century Baby Blanket, that I found online years ago. It's an awesome pattern, very easy, usually very quick to knit, and works with most yarns. Here are two photos of it from last night. You can see how the evil purple hides the lovely pink in the blanket. lol The pink is actually brighter than the photo is showing. I might have to start another project and let this one sit again, just for awhile. Happy Knitting!!

The pink looks white in the photo but it's actually a lot brighter.

I think it is gorgeous! Just think of eggplant purple when you knit it.
