Yarn Note: This pattern calls for 10 balls of Classic Elite Waterspun in Red (MC) and 7 in White (CC). Bobbins are recommended for the intarsia colorwork.

From the Book: “Brighten up the nursery with Nicky Epstein’s bold blanket. Lions, hippos, and giraffes are worked in intarsia; details like the lion’s mane and elephant’s ears are embroidered afterwards. It’s finished with an eyelet-point trim topped with bobble clusters.”
