This quilt-style baby blanket is part of a layette set (sweater, hat, booties, & blanket) designed for Wonderland Yarns “So Fond of Rainbows” mini-skein set. It is worked in pieces. Rectangles are knit individually and then pieced together like a quilt to create a pinwheel design.

A video tutorial link is provided to assist with seaming.
