I’ve been wanting to make this blanket for a while now and I’m so glad I’ve got around to it as it is, without doubt, the squishiest, stretchiest blanket I’ve ever knit! There’s just something about the way that the rib ripples that I love, and hopefully you will too.

Worked corner to corner with a 6 row repeat, this blanket works up fast and is suitable for both beginner and experienced knitters.

There’s a lot of versatility here as well – you can use any yarn you want, just use the suggested needle size. You can also make it however small or big you want, just bear in mind that the blanket will be square in shape.

Written in English using UK terms, row by row instructions are included.

Size: Whatever you want it to be!

Yarn: You can use any yarn you want! I used JC Brett Baby Marble DK (pictured in Wild Meadow) and 4mm needles to make my blanket.

Tension: Not a problem

Yardage: Depends on your yarn and the size you want your blanket to be. For reference, I used 270gms (just short of 3 balls) to make a blanket that measured 24x24 in (unstretched).
