Level of Difficulty
Grandma’s Lace Blanket is based on an adorable vintage doll’s blanket that Kate’s Grandma made for her when she was small. It was recently re-discovered at home, so as a tribute to the Grandma who taught her to knit, Kate has written out the pattern for us all to enjoy. It starts and ends with wide moss stitch borders, and has a straightforward 6 row lace pattern in the centre. Choose a machine washable yarn with good stitch definition for best results.
