Luxury Series No 1 Reversible Blanket
For this gorgeous and versatile baby blanket pattern, I selected Blue Sky Fibers Suri Merino and Spud and Chloe Outer – two luxurious yarns that create an elegant and beautiful reversible fabric when knitted together. The Broken Rib stitch, a straightforward architectural design, highlights the unique textures of these fibers. The captivating shadows cast by the stitches and the lovely waffled texture truly make this blanket come alive. By using either of these premium yarns, you can appreciate how the single ply of Suri Merino contributes a delightful halo, exceptional softness, and graceful drape, in contrast to the plush 2-ply bulky cotton/wool blend of Outer. Both yarns hold stitch patterns with remarkable definition, making them perfect for a variety of color choices, suitable for any baby. The blanket knitted with Outer is slightly larger, as I found the stitch gauge for a 30" square to be a bit on the loose side. The additional two inches ensure a better proportion between the central panel and the evenly balanced border, resulting in a refined 32" square blanket with an equal border on all four sides. Whether you choose the Suri Merino or Outer for your blanket project, either option guarantees a timeless and cherished gift that will be treasured for years to come. Perfect for baby showers, birthday gifts, or as a cozy keepsake, this knitting pattern is ideal for both beginners and experienced knitters looking to create something special.
