This unisex blanket uses a simple eyelet pattern to create a design that’s easy to knit and sure to keep baby cosy. The border is worked as part of the main pattern which means there’s no sewing involved. I used King Cole Big Value Chunky, an easy care acrylic yarn. The pattern will work to any other yarn of your choice, but please check the tension and yardage carefully.

Instructions are given for 3 sizes:
Smallest: 68 x 68 cm/27 x 27”), approx 300g

You will also need 6mm needles (you may prefer a circular needle for the biggest size) and a tapestry needle to weave in the loose ends.
