Simple Little Blanket...perfect for pets!

Hi All,
Recently I have picked up knitting again. I took a knitting course a long time ago, and frankly, I've forgotten how much fun it can be! It is even more fun when you're making something with the intent of giving it to someone else. In this case, my gift receiver was my best friend's dog, Ike.
I made a square by started with fourteen stitches and alternating knit stitched rows and purl stitched rows. 
This is what the back looks like. 

I made a total of nine squares and arranged them how I wanted them for the final product.

I used a thick stitching needle to piece together the squares with the extra yarn strands on each square. 


Finally, I embroidered Ike's name with thread. 

A happy dog:)
