This easy care baby blanket has a religious theme with a cross in the center framed by several borders. It is square, intuitive to knit, and soft enough to make wrapping and draping easily achievable. The borders are composed of garter, stockinette, and seed stitches and the cross is composed of garter stitch.

The look is very polished and accurate. For this reason it is recommended to “admire” your work periodically to avoid errors (or fix them before proceeding).

Perfect for christenings and baptisms, it is also great for photo props for new babies. It makes a lovely gift for a new baby.

I chose white because she requested it but it would be lovely in most colors. This easy care yarn is perfect for new parents and 3 skeins were perfect to complete the blanket.
