*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.
