Easy and Quick to Make!

This is a quick and relaxing project with a simple basketweave pattern for the body of the blanket. Edging is picked up and knit in a double seed stitch.

Yarn Choice

Baby blankets should be soft, which will eliminate all but the finest wools from your fiber selection. Cotton, or even acrylic, is a great choice as the new mother will be able to machine wash; she’ll never have time to hand wash a blanket!

Size

As with all SpinCraft Patterns, you can use any yarn and make any size. Very often fiber artists are limited to the amount of yarn they have on hand. Not a problem with this pattern as that is exactly what I did! I knit up my white yarn until it was gone, and then edged with a chunky pink.

This pattern can be used to make all baby blanket sizes:

• Cradle: 23” x 28”
• Car Seat 26” x 26”
• Crib 30” x 36”
• Toddler 36” x 52”
