My Little Sweet Pea Baby Blanket

Looking to create a beautiful and versatile blanket for your little one? Our sweet pea baby blanket pattern is designed for both boys and girls, making it the perfect addition to any nursery. This lovely blanket can be knit using sport, DK, or worsted weight yarn—simply adjust your needle size accordingly. For our sample, we used approximately 952 yards (875m) of sport weight yarn, specifically 7 balls of MillaMia Naturally Soft Merino in the charming Sky Blue (126) shade, using US 6 (4.0mm) needles. Please note that this Sky Blue color is currently discontinued, but don’t worry—we suggest using the gorgeous Forget Me Not (120) as a substitute for your blanket project.

This knitting pattern offers two distinct versions: a short and a full version. The full version provides a comprehensive and detailed description of all 224 rows that make up the blanket body, ensuring that you have everything you need for a successful knit. If you opt for the full version, you won’t need the short version, so print accordingly to save on paper and ink. Be sure to pay attention to important details, including the correction on page 2 of the directions—make note that it should read “28 full leaf vine repeats” rather than “24 full leaf vine repeats.” Also, on page 2 of the materials list, the correct yarn requirement is “952 yards (875m).” This sweet pea baby blanket pattern is not only a delightful project but also a wonderful gift for any new parents.
