CHAPTER 6

BABY BLANKET

This one is a little big thing to make, but the easy knitting pattern is easy to follow. You will just need some more time to finish this as compared to the smaller dish cloths.

How to make the baby blanket:

You will need the sunshine yellow soft yarn and 6.5 mm knitting needle to make this blanket. You can also use the 24 inch or 32 inch circular needles if you are comfortable to work with them.
