I am good with the length of this blanket. It's 36.5". What I am unsure about though is how wide to make it, well, how much wider to make it. It's about 24" wide right now which is not wide enough. I have to start a new skein of yarn, which I have, which is good, but I think that even after completing this blanket, I will have barely made a dent in that skein. So, I guess I could make a bunch of white fuzzy hats, or I could get another skein of this and make another blanket with basically these same dimensions. I do know quite a few expectant mothers right now, most of whom do not know the sex of their baby, so white works. I know, how exciting......NOT!

I would tell you the squarer the blanket the easier it is to swaddle the baby. Newborn babies love to be swaddled. Very pretty work.
