Leaf Border Lovey

Introducing our adorable leaf design lovey, a delightful addition to any newborn's collection or the perfect security blanket for toddlers! This charming and functional blanket is not only great as a lovely cuddle companion but also serves as an adorable prop for those precious photoshoot moments. Measuring at a cozy size of 13 x 14 inches (15 x 16 inches) or 33 x 35.5 cm (38 x 40.5 cm), it’s just right for little hands to hold onto and provides a sense of comfort and security.

This smaller lovey size is designed to complement my full-sized Silva Blanket, making it a wonderful pairing for your little one. The blanket requires just 3 (3) skeins of Yarn & Color Baby Fabulous yarn, which boasts a soft blend of 45% cotton and 55% acrylic. Each skein contains 111 yards (102 meters) of yarn, totaling around 250 (300) yards needed for this project. With a higher cotton content, you’ll achieve excellent stitch definition and superior blocking, ensuring a beautifully finished look.

For this pattern, you will need US size 6 (4mm) needles or an alternative size to help you obtain the desired gauge. Expect to achieve a gauge of 20 stitches and 28 rows for every 4 inches (10 cm) in stockinette stitch. This makes it a fantastic project for intermediate knitters who want to create something special for a baby or toddler.
