The Gracie Baby Blanket is a simple to knit blanket that is pretty enough for a baby girl but not too pretty if the baby turns out to be a boy!

Knit in a 4 ply or fingering yarn it makes a light and airy blanket. Choose something soft and snuggly for the little one to be wrapped in. The pattern looks just as good in an easy care acrylic as it does in a soft merino yarn.

I have updated the pattern to cover two sizes:
58 x 76 cm / 23 x 30 inches and
78.5 x 96.5 cm / 31 x 38 inches.

The sample blanket above is in traditional white but knitted in a semi-solid or multicoloured yarn it would look just as lovely as the raised stitch pattern catches the light and adds interesting shadows.
