Hearts and flowers cot blanket
Discover the ultimate in comfort and style with our Thick, Warm, Soft, and Cozy Reversible Cot Blanket knitting pattern. This beautifully crafted blanket is double-knitted in one continuous piece using luxurious 4-ply wool for a unique and inviting texture. The striking pattern of vertical and horizontal stripes creates an eye-catching basket-weave effect that adds visual interest to any nursery or living space. In fact, you can personalize the nine central squares with your own imaginative designs—feel free to express your creativity beyond the hearts and flowers I used in my sample!
Though I’ve named this delightful creation a cot blanket due to its perfect size and adorable appeal, it’s also versatile enough to serve as a cozy TV blanket for those chilly evenings. Imagine snuggling under this blanket while enjoying your favorite movie or reading a wonderful book!
The sample was made using Shepherd Baby Wool Merino 4 ply in vibrant Lime (2936) and playful Hot Pink (2939). However, I've provided the yarn quantities specifically for Paton’s Merino Extrafine 4 ply to accommodate your preferences. Feel free to explore your creativity with any 4 ply yarn you favor—whether you choose to work with bold contrasting colors from opposite sides of the color wheel or opt for two harmonious shades of the same hue. Just keep in mind that if you decide to use a different yarn or change needle sizes, it’s recommended to knit a small gauge swatch to accurately estimate the yarn required for your project.
Get started with this charming project today and enjoy the fun of creating a unique piece that not only enhances your home décor but also delivers warmth and coziness to your little one or your own snug evenings in. Happy knitting!
