Do you have a special baby in your life? This super-soft, super-simple blanket is the perfect gift! Made out of a machine-washable cotton blend, it’s as easy to care for as it is to stitch. This rectangular blanket is worked flat from the short end in an easily-memorized two-row pattern stitch. The ripples are created by working balanced increases and decreases. The fabric pivots up over the aligned column of increases and points down over the aligned column of decreases.
