We recommend using Stylecraft Special DK, a 100% acrylic yarn that is soft, durable, and easy to care for. The yarn has approximately 322 yards (295 meters) per 100g ball. For the Small (S) size blanket, you will need 1 ball each of white and pink, and 1 ball of green. For the Medium (M) size, you’ll need 2 balls of white, and 1 ball each of pink and green. Feel free to substitute with any other suitable DK yarn of your choice!
On average, the actual yarn amounts you'll need are approximately 90g of white, 15g of pink, and 20g of green for the Small size; and for the Medium size, around 200g of white, 40g of pink, and 50g of green. This ensures you have all the necessary supplies before you begin your lovely knitting project.
This exquisite baby blanket is knitted flat from the top down, making the process straightforward and enjoyable. It starts with a charming seed stitch border at both the top and bottom, while the side borders are added after completing the main body of the blanket. The mitred edges are then beautifully joined, giving your blanket a neat and polished look.
For those unfamiliar, “seed stitch” is also referred to as “Moss Stitch.” This delightful stitch pattern creates a textured appearance that is visually appealing while being soft to the touch, perfect for a baby's delicate skin.
The pattern is designed to be easy to follow, providing a step-by-step guide complemented by detailed photographs. This will help you navigate through the entire process, ensuring you achieve the best results with your knitting project. Dive into this wonderful knitting journey and create a cherished piece that any baby would love to snuggle with!
