I'm looking to make a cute baby blanket for my unborn babyI still have mine that my mom made for me before I was born and I would like my baby to have it as a keep sake later in life.I need some suggestions regarding the type of quot;fabricquot; I should useI don't mind spending money on something expensive as long as it's long lasting and good qualityI was thinking about cashmire for a while, do you think it would be suitable for a blanket for a newborn?Last question, where can I get good quality materials to knit the blanket? Are there any quot;luxury fabric storesquot; either online or regular one that somebody can recommend me? Thanks a bunch!
why not do something creative? customize an old teeshirt you no longer wear, write a poem, do it outside in the sunshinethe vitamin d does you good, but make sure you wear sun lotion!

My mother always said If your bored go bang your head against the wall
I'm sorry to tell you this but there are tons of problems with your questionFirst off, you can't knit a blanket with a crochet hook.You can crochet a blanket with the hook, or you can knit one with some needled, but they are not interchangeableCashmere, in my opinion, would be a very bad option for a baby blanket.Unless you have something like a christening shawl in mind (iesomething that you will wrap the baby in for a short time for pictures or something like that and then put away for safekeeping), baby blankets should be an easily washable material.Honestly, I would go with an acrylic or blend that is machine washable and would require minimum blocking of the finished objectIf you are new to knitting/crocheting, I would recommend finding an easy baby blanket pattern and some yarn at someplace like Michael's or Hobby Lobby.There will be pattern booklets and entire books devoted to simple, quick baby needlework.Also, these stores have very nice beginner yarns (especially Hobby Lobby)Good luck with your project and congratulations on the new baby!
