Baby Blanket Toy
A blanket toy like this one is quick and easy to knit, and it makes a great gift for a new baby. This one is knit flat and entirely in garter stitch, with some basic shaping and sewing. I chose a soft, medium-weight organic cotton yarn that’s perfect for baby things. (Though the label says hand wash, I’ve found it does fine in the washer and dryer on delicate.)
