needle: 10.5 skeins: 8
skill: Beginner stiches: stockinette
This baby blanket is perfect for knitters of all levels. It is knit in Stockinette stitch and has a simple crochet border around the edges. All you have to do is knit a row, purl a row for 30 inches. We use 2 strands of Zara held together to make this blanket a relatively quick knit. We also stripe it to add a little interest. There is one color that runs throughout the entire blanket and four other colors that we alternate, making nice wide stripes. Zara is machine washable in cold water and must be lay flat to dry.

This is a Yarn Co. Original Pattern. When you purchase yarn to knit this design, we will send you a custom-sized pattern for free. Call our order line, 1-888-YARNCO1 in order for us to determine your size.
