That idea that makes you feel like an adult with a reason for rambling on the internet but like so many lame-o's before you, it never comes.
Yet, we blog anyway...
Baby it's cold outside!
So what does cold make us want to do? Stay inside and get cozy and crafty. So I present to you, while not a new project, one of my favorites. A super cozy little blanket I knitted for my now three-year-old niece on the occasion of her birth.
I chose a sweet melony pink for this blanket, and picked out what ever felt soft and cozy.
A free pattern for a Basketweave Baby Blanket is available free on Ravelry, but as it is so simple I will just repost here in the interest of time.
The truth is, the pattern here is not the exact one since the pattern I used is not reversible--showing a wavy form on the back--but after three years, this is the closest I've found.
WANTED: The real pattern for this blanket! |
- Cast on 180
- Rows 1-6: knit 6, purl 6 (known as seed stitch) and repeat to last six stitches, then 6 seed stitches (i.e. k, p, k, p, k, p)

- Repeat 22 times

Have you seen the pattern for this baby blanket anywhere?
