Baby Blanket with Honeycomb Cables
This adorable baby blanket is expertly knitted in a charming and straightforward Honeycomb Cables Stitch, making it the perfect cozy accessory for your little one. This versatile pattern includes both detailed written instructions and a clear chart for the stitch, ensuring that both beginners and seasoned knitters can easily follow along.
The finished baby blanket measures approximately 34 inches (86 cm) in length and 26.5 inches (67 cm) in width, providing just the right size for wrapping up your baby or using as a soft play mat. Crafted from #4 (10 ply) medium worsted/aran yarn, this blanket is not only functional but also stylish—ideal for any nursery decor.
For this project, I used around 610 yards (about 2 skeins) of Premier Yarns Basix Worsted yarn, renowned for its luxurious softness and comfort, making it an excellent choice for baby items. This yarn is not only gentle against delicate skin but also durable, ensuring that your handmade blanket will last through countless cuddles and washes.
With a gauge of 4 stitches per 1 inch in stockinette stitch, this pattern allows for easy adjustment if you wish to modify the size of your blanket. The overall difficulty level of this project is rated as easy, making it a perfect choice for beginners who want to practice their skills while creating a beautiful, functional piece.
Whether you're knitting this cozy baby blanket as a heartfelt gift for a baby shower, birthday, or just to welcome a new arrival, it will undoubtedly be cherished for years to come.
