The nurses in the NICU area were SO excited about getting the blankets!
They passed the blankets around, saying "Oh! Look at this one!", or "Isn't that BEAUTIFUL?!"
One of the nurses looked at me, and said, "I want to learn to KNIT!" :)
I told them the story of how our blankets were made, and one nurse was saying, "I keep getting goosebumps! It's such a neat story!"
I asked if they would mind posing with me to get a photo of the blankets being presented, and they were all for it.
The neatest part was being able to see the little babies in the room behind us. They were all sleeping peacefully. Amazing, with all the "Ooohs" and "Aaaahs" by the nurses over the blankets. (tee-hee)
Our project is now complete, and there are a lot of little babies that will enjoy our work. Thank you all!

It was a WONDERFUL day, Misha. And it could not have happened without all of the amazing Oddball Knitters. You all ROCK!
This is so great! I knit for the Northeast group and I think it's just a wonderful cause. :)
