August Baby Blanket is garter stitch blanket with bold stripes in fun colors. A great project for a beginner looking to start working with colors.

I used 3 colors of a cotton and acrylic blend DK yarn. Each stripe used about 1.4 oz (40 g) 87 yd (80 m) with the first and last stripes using about 10% more for the cast on and bind off. Any kind of yarn would work with this pattern, but note that a different gauge will affect the final size.

You may make and sell products from my pattern but please credit me and/or link back to my post and use your own photos.

Have fun with it!
