Newcastle Baby Blanket
The Newcastle Baby Blanket was inspired by a princess’s castle. The pattern is made up of simple knits and purls, but the effect is stunning.
The blanket has excellent drape and a good weight, perfect for keeping a wiggly babe snug and warm without overheating. It’s also truly reversible with no identifiable right or wrong side and no identifiable top or bottom.
