The ruffled edge baby blanket starts with a provisional cast on so that the second ruffle can be made last. The carry-along thread can be any sewing thread. I used 3 threads held together with the main color to make the awesome effect on the ruffle.

Any fingering weight yarn can be used. Exact gauge is not required.

A great little sampler with interesting stitches, sure to be an heirloom for a new baby.

These cuffs have a ribbing on the inside so they will fit almost any arm size.

Buck Hollow Llama yarn is incredibly soft. It has a perfect blend of merino (20%) to ensure the yarn doesn’t stretch out. I love it against my skin.

A beautiful yet simple pattern. Can be adjusted to be longer or shorter with a simple 6 stitch repeat. My sample was done with a wonder 100% Baby Alpaca, but any worsted or heavy worsted can be used. The softer the better!

Any super bulky yarn can be used.

Gauge is not critical. Tighter gauge will make your cowl narrower and shorter; looser gauge will make your cowl wider and longer. You can also make it longer or shorter by adding or decreasing 1 repeat of the 2 patterns. You will use less than one skein of each yarn. Perfect also as a scrap yarn project!

There is an 8 st, 4 row repeat. Size can be adjusted to your needs.

Any pattern or color(s) can be used.

This was designed as a scarf, but it could easily be converted into a shawl.
