Sunset Baby Blanket

In her continuing Sunset Series Meghan whipped up an adorable “vintage rainbow” crib blanket for her cousin’s soon-to-arrive baby! This gender neutral blanket is perfect for a little ones crib, stroller, and any place a baby needs a little extra warmth + softness.
Made in our lightweight Weld, the Sunset Baby Blanket is worked from corner to corner in garter stitch using simple increases + decrease, and finished with an I-cord edge.
This blanket uses all nine original dyed colors of Weld and our natural, fawn, for the perfect color gradient pleasing to newborns and adults.
