How to make a baby burrito from scratch
How to make a baby burrito from scratch:
1. Start baby. (not pictured)
2. Find wool. Baby yarn is widely on offer, but don’t forget that proximity to the real stuff instills great virtue at a tender age.
3. Get to work. Blankets knit from the center out are trying companions: they go lightning fast at first when you have only a handful of stitches in each round, and then slowly increase in size until it takes an hour or worse to finish a single row. Fair warning that during your third trimester, this will seem a cruelly parallel trajectory to the gestational process.
4. Have baby. (not pictured)
5. Assemble.
