This blanket is really very easy to make and a perfect project for a beginner or a busy, experienced knitter who would rather not concentrate too hard on their work. Three quarters of the rows are plain knit, so the blanket grows quickly and could be the solution to a last-minute requirement.
Wonderfully soft, this yarn shows stitch detail beautifully and is cosy without being too fuzzy and uncomfortable for a new baby. The blanket is of perfect proportions to be snuggly for a newborn baby yet useful for a toddler in the pram - it is sure to become a favourite comforter and treasured heirloom.
