Silva Baby Blanket

Start your little one's journey with our delightful nature-inspired baby blanket knitting pattern, designed specifically for that special baby in your life. This stunning blanket features a charming leaf border on all sides, giving it a fresh and organic feel. The intricate leaves seem to pop off the blanket's reverse stockinette background, while the wrong side showcases a lovely vine appearance. This blanket is not only a joy to knit but also a perfect gift for baby showers, birthdays, or any special occasion.

This knitting pattern includes a detailed lace chart, making it suitable for both beginner and experienced knitters looking to create a beautiful keepsake. The blanket comes in multiple sizes, including Small (Stroller, Receiving, Toddler), allowing you to choose the perfect dimensions for your needs. The sizes are as follows: Width x Height measurements are 29 x 32 (32 x 34, 39 x 39.5, 41 x 50)” / 73.5 x 81.5 (81.5 x 86.5, 99 x 100.5, 104 x 127) cm, giving you flexibility in size options for any baby.

For this project, you will need 5 (6, 8, 10) skeins of The Plucky Knitter Sweater Aran yarn, which boasts an impressive yardage of 185 yards (169 meters) per skein. This soft blend consists of 95% merino wool and 5% nylon, ensuring that the blanket is both warm and durable. Our sample was knitted using the charming “Like Sands Through an Hourglass” colorway, but feel free to choose any color that complements your nursery.

To achieve the best results, use US size 7 (4.5mm) 32”/80cm circular needles, or a size that helps you achieve the recommended gauge of 17 stitches and 24 rows per 4”/10cm in stockinette. This will ensure your finished project matches the intended dimensions and has a cozy, soft drape that is perfect for cuddling.

This pattern has been thoughtfully updated in version 3, released on 11/21, ensuring that you have the best resources for your knitting adventure. Create lasting memories and a beautiful heirloom with this nature-inspired baby blanket, perfect for wrapping your little one in love and warmth.
