Knitted blanket for Isla

I've been knitting this little number for the last few months. I am cheating a bit by posting it now, because it is really intended to be for Christmas. I had a feeling that if I waited to post the pics, then I'd better do it now. isn't my girl cute? I used this pattern from Purl Bee. I used this yarn from Blue sky Alpaca. I wouldn't mind making another one of these down the line. It was easy and I like the simplicity of it.
