This is a square baby blanket knit in garter stitch. The garter ridges add volume and softness to the blanket. I used 13 skeins of Lana Grossa Bingo in five different colours.

This project is a good start for beginners. Experienced knitters will find it an unchallenging project to knit along to their favourite TV program. All you need to know is how to cast on, knit (no purl stitches) and bind off.

The pattern also includes a perfectionist’s version which - for perfect symmetry - is knit in two pieces that are grafted together.
