Baby blankets are a big deal! They’re dragged around the house, bunched up, cuddled, chewed on….so why not have something simple and durable, larger than usual so it lasts a bit longer?

This simple, garter edged blanket is perfect for any baby, toddler, and maybe even older. It’s easily adaptable if you want to make it bigger or smaller, without a lot of fanfare. The yarn is bulky so it knits up quickly, acrylic for easy care, and soft because babies!

The original used approximately 480 yds of grey, and maybe 20 yds each of the pink and purple for a total of about 520 yds.
