*HUSH A BYE BABY* baby blanket


I love this pretty yarn, it's King Cole Melody and the colour is Rainbow, very girlie.
I have tried to design a blanket to maximise the colours but a plain blue or white without the bows would be lovely for a baby boy.
It's approx 28x28ins / 70x70cms when finished.
The pattern is very easy to follow and there are plenty of step by step photos if you need them.
The border is knitted after and stitched to the main section. The bows are very securely sewn on and are, of course, entirely optional.

*LITTLE DREAMER* baby blanket


                                              
One of my favourite baby blanket designs. I've made several of these in different colours and yarn weights. The pattern is in double knit but I prefer to use baby soft Aran yarn on a bigger needle. The blanket comes out a touch bigger but the overall pattern is the same.
For the main photo here I added a few crocheted flowers (not included in the pattern) and on the pink one I used guipure lace daisies to decorate it. Both look so pretty, but for a baby boy I preferred to have no decoration.


Worked in 4 triangles and sewn together, using the loop stitch from the beginning of every row. Very neat and easy.

*RAINBOW DUST* baby blanket

                                

*RAINBOW DUST* is so easy to knit in baby soft double knit yarn.
I chose King Cole Melody and the colour is Candy. Very soft and very pretty.
The border is knitted separately to the main body piece.
Sew together gathering at the corners.
The finisher size is approx.: 30x30ins/78x78cms.
This would be a lovely gift for a new baby and the pattern is perfect for girls and boys just change the yarn accordingly.

*LITTLE BOY BLUE* baby blanket








A nice and easy baby blanket suitable for both quite new knitters and the more experienced knitter too. I have added plenty of step by step photos as added guidance should it be needed.



 Approx size 28x28ins/72x72cms.
This blanket uses approx 200gms of double knit, or equivalent, baby soft yarn.
I added a satin bow but this is entirely optional.

The knitting pattern is available from my Etsy shop (pdf only) https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/457471232/sale-little-boy-blue-baby-blanket

*CHERRY BLOSSOM* Baby Blanket


I love to see babies in beautiful, hand knitted items.
This is one of my baby blanket designs in baby soft Aran weight yarn. Super easy to knit in 4 triangles and simply slip stitched together with the loop made at the start of every row.

So easy to knit, in 4 triangles. I knitted this baby blanket in a pretty sugary pink yarn. Nothing difficult and super quick to knit in the Aran weight yarn.
Would make a lovely gift for a new baby or for a baby shower.
Approx finished size 30x30ins/76x76cms
