This is my Warmer Shores Baby Blanket.

Inspired by long sandy beaches and crystal blue seas blending into clear blue skies. The wonderful texture of the stitch gives a rippling ocean effect, along with the waves of joining colours.

A baby blanket full of ripples of love which grow into waves.

The pattern is in US and UK terminology (two pdf patterns will be supplied so please check which version you are working from).

The beautiful pattern rows create such a pretty effect that this blanket doesn’t require a border.

Dreaming of distant, warmer shores? Wrap baby in waves of love with this ocean inspired blanket.

4mm hook and DK yarn give an approximate finished blanket size of 30” by 34”. You can, of course, use a thicker yarn and larger hook for a larger blanket.

Only straightforward stitches are used in this pattern so I have classified it as an ‘Easy’ level. (Working into the back loop only is required for one row of the repeated pattern).

The blanket photographed was made using Paintbox Simply DK yarn but any DK yarn could be used (such as Stylecraft Special DK). This is a written pattern and not a chart.
