*For this delightful project, you will need approximately 300 grams of self-striping or plain Aran baby yarn. I personally recommend using Baby Cakes Aran by Cygnet Yarns for a beautiful self-striping effect that adds visual interest and texture to your blanket. However, any high-quality Aran yarn will work splendidly for this pattern.
*You will also require one pair of 7 mm UK size straight knitting needles and a 7 mm cable needle to execute the simple cable stitch. With these materials in hand, you’re ready to embark on your knitting adventure!
