Cathedral Heirloom Baby Blanket - P069

Discover the inspiration behind this exquisite blanket pattern, which was born from my enchanting visit to England. While exploring the stunning cathedrals and majestic castles throughout England, Ireland, Scotland, and Wales, I found myself captivated by the intricate architectural details, particularly in the remarkable Gloucester Cathedral. The breathtaking ceiling of the cloister left me in awe, and I knew I needed to translate its stunning artistry into a knitting pattern. With the excitement surrounding a ‘Royal Baby’ announcement, I eagerly set to work designing, sketching, and knitting swatches to bring this vision to life. The result is this beautiful blanket pattern, which includes comprehensive charts and step-by-step photographs that demonstrate exactly how to knit the featured stitches.
