This elegant baby blanket features a stunning leaf-inspired lace motif, where delicate eyelets trace graceful, organic shapes that resemble gently unfolding petals of leaves. Each leaf seems to bloom from blanket’s surface, creating a sense of movement and flow. The motifs are perfectly framed by a classic seed stitch border, offering a refined contrast to the intricate central design and helping the blanket to lie flat with a polished finish.
Though the design looks intricate, it’s approachable and enjoyable for adventurous beginners, with techniques that are simple to learn and rewarding to master. Whether you’re knitting for a special gift or your own bundle of joy, this blanket offers a mediative, satisfying project.
Knit with luxuriously soft yarn blend of merino wool, acrylic, and cashmere, the final piece is both durable and irresistibly gentle – perfect for snuggling.
