Blankets....All Sorts

Square crib blanket knit from Cotton Tots by Bernat. This yarn is 100% cotton and very soft to the touch (unlike the coarser Sugar 'n Cream by Lily used for dishcloths). The pattern is started at the center and worked outward. It is modified slightly from the Crochet Baby Granny Square Afghan pattern by Vanna White .



Play mat blanket knit on the diagonal with bulky yarn. This pattern is started in the corner (3-5 st) with a stitch added on each row until you get to the half-way mark. Then a stitch is decreased on each row until you get to the number of stitches you began with. Autopilot pattern!


Stroller Blankets knit with Cotton Ease. A great yarn weight and fiber (50% cotton, 50% acrylic) for baby blankets - dense but lightweight. Easy care, too! Both patterns are from Designer Sport Baby (booklet) by Candi Jensen.
