This pattern contains a description of how to knit baby blanket.
Pattern includes two versions for knitting a blanket:

2) working garter stitch

SKILL LEVEL: Advanced Beginner

LANGUAGES: English

MATERIALS:

• circular needles 100 cm (40 in) for knitting the base of a blanket;
• double-pointed needles for knitting the border of the blanket;
• extra long circular needles 200 cm (80 in) for knitting edging rounds around the border; !The size of the needles depends on the yarn you choose!
• markers;
• tape measure;
• crochet hook;
• tapestry needle.

YARN: DROPS air (or analogs). You can use any other yarn, taking into account the NOTE below.

NOTE: The finished blanket is in the shape of a square. The size of the square can be made to any size.
When knitting with garter stitch, the blanket takes the shape of a square without any problems. When knitting with plain knitting, the blanket may not have an ideal square shape due to the density of knitting (diamond shape). In order for the blanket to have the squarest shape, the knitting gauge should strive to ensure that the number of rows is twice as large as the number of stitches in a 10x10 cm square. Example: 11 stitches x 22 rows. Knit the base of the blanket is not tight, so that the blanket is lighter and better draped.

BLANKET CONSTRUCTION:
The base of the blanket consists of two knitted triangles, which are grafted together (using kitchener stitch). Then we knit a border around the base of the blanket. At the end of work knit edging rounds around the border.

YARN CONSUMPTION:
Yarn consumption depends on your knitting density and blanket size.

Example:
1) blanket, knitted with plain knitting: 100 х 100 cm (40x40 in), yarn 210 m /100 g (230 yds/3.5 oz), density 11 stitches X 20 rows in a square 10x10 cm (4x4 in), needles size 6 mm (US 10). Consumption 735 m (800 yds)
2) blanket, knitted with garter stitch: 110 х 110 cm (43x43 in), yarn 200 m /100 g (220 yds/3.5 oz), density 13 stitches X 24 rows in a square 10x10 cm (4x4 in), needles size 5 mm (US 8). Consumption 1100 m (1200 yds).
