Newborn Baby Blanket

Knit this beautiful baby blanket as a special gift for the arrival of a new baby. It is not only a lovely eye-catcher in the nursery, but also a heartfelt handmade keepsake.

The blanket is worked using only knit stitches, purl stitches, and slipped stitches. This makes the pattern easy to follow and the blanket quick to knit – perfect for relaxing knitting sessions.

The pattern can be followed either using the chart or the written row-by-row instructions.

The written instructions look, for example, like this:

1. Row: Sl1k, 9 kn, 14 pr, 8 kn, 12 pr, 7 kn, 14 pr, 9 kn pr (75 st)
2. Row: Sl1k, 73 kn, 1 pr (75 st)

The pattern is very beginner-friendly, as you only need to know how to knit, purl, and slip stitches. You can easily work through the pattern using the written row-by-row instructions.
