The pattern is suitable for baby girl or baby boy. I prefer to use merino wool as it is amazingly soft, lightweight, breathable and active fiber that reacts to changes in body temperature helping stay warm when the weather is cold and cool when the weather is hot, so the blanket can be used the whole year around.

Measurements:
22in * 28in (55cm * 70cm);
28in * 36in (70cm * 90cm);
35in * 43in (90cm * 110cm);
39in * 59in (100cm * 150cm).

The pattern is ideal for a beginner knitter, instructions are clearly charted and written with full explanations for personal preference. Furthermore full pattern support is available by message or email. All measurements are given in US and metric.
