This blanket pattern brings out the kid in everyone. Knit in bright colors, this blanket evokes superhero costumes and powers. I imagine it will make an excellent cape as well as a mask! Knit in more subtle colors, the blanket becomes a treasured lovey to be snuggled. Is there anything better than being able to wind little fingers through gaps in fabric? Worked from the center out, the pattern is easy to memorize and fun to knit.
