This is a wee 15” blanket, which the hospital has requested we knit as matching pairs. They are used for wrapping tiny stillborn babies.

The size can easily be modified by adding stitches in multiples of 4 +2.

Any soft DK yarn can be used in whichever suitable ‘baby’ colours you wish.

Knitting for Harry is a Facebook group, working as part of The Harry Cunningham Trust to provide much needed knitted items for neo-natal units. At the moment, in the south of England, but we hope to expand this service as our little group grows.

If you happen to find any mistakes in the pattern, please let me know.
