Notes

I have knitted most of the baby blankets designed by WoolhelminaToo. (He knits the artworks himself but his knitting is usually too tight for other things.)

This has been one of my favourites, for various reasons

  • It is very easy
  • The dolphins are on a garter stitch background (Many of the blankets are alternate ridges of garter and stocking stitch.)
  • The outlines of the dolphins are very streamlined so it is easy to check that nothing is out of place
  • It reminds me of yin yang

It would be very easy to add a wide border and make it big enough for an adult bed. I was tempted to add a wvy border to make it look like the sea.
