Vail Baby Blanket

Introducing the **Vail Baby Blanket**, a beautifully designed knit blanket perfect for keeping your little one cozy in a crib, stroller, or car seat. This versatile blanket is crafted to provide warmth on chilly days while remaining light enough for those warmer days, making it an essential addition to your baby's essentials. The design features an optional crochet edge, allowing you to customize the look; whether you choose to add it or not, the blanket remains simple yet stunning.

For this project, I chose DK weight Superwash wool, which is ideal for baby items due to its washability, warmth, and incredibly soft texture. However, feel free to substitute with any DK or worsted weight yarn that suits your preference. The blanket showcased was knitted using size 6 (4.00 mm) needles, creating a fabric that’s both durable and comforting for your child.

The finished dimensions of the Vail Baby Blanket are approximately 28 by 29 inches, but you have the flexibility to easily adjust the size to make it larger or smaller according to your needs. This makes it a versatile gift option for baby showers or a cherished keepsake for your own little one. With its straightforward knit and purl stitch construction, this blanket is perfect for beginner knitters looking to hone their skills while crafting a beautiful, functional piece.
