Create a cozy and delightful textured striped blanket ideal for a crib, small cot, or pram with our easy-to-follow knitting pattern. This blanket is designed with simplicity in mind, making it accessible for knitters of all skill levels. The perfect addition to your nursery, it not only provides warmth but also adds a touch of charm to your baby’s space. Keep in mind that tension is not critical for this project; the yarn used tends to increase when it is blocked. Therefore, different tensions may result in variations in size and the amount of yarn required.

If you’re looking to customize this blanket to suit your needs, it’s easy to make it bigger. To increase the width, simply cast on additional stitches in multiples of 4. For added length, you can extend the moss stitch section to include 6 or 8 rows instead of the standard 4 rows. Similarly, the stocking stitch sections can also be expanded from 6 to 8 rows, allowing for even more versatility. You can even opt to repeat the entire pattern more than 4 times for a truly personalized touch. This customizable feature not only makes it fun and engaging to knit, but it also allows you to create a unique piece that fits perfectly in your home.
