Knitting Pattern WILLOW knit chunky newborn blanket

Knit something timeless and personilized with the Willow Blanket, a textured design that highlights the simple beauty of knit and purl stitches. A neat garter stitch border frames a smooth stockinette background, while the central motif is brought to life through the interplay of garter and reverse stockinette. The custom name design appears in elegant relief without the need for charts, cables, or colorwork. The final size of the project will depend on the yarn and needle size you choose.
