I recently knitted this baby blanket for a new arrival.
It was quite time-consuming to knit. It was knitted in various different balls of double knitting yarn which was 100% acrylic so it will be easy to wash.
It is really a smaller version of
the English Adventure Throw that I knitted previously. I am calling it Water Lilies because it
consists of large flat circular shapes – some of which are pale pink like water
lilies.
I originally intended to add an
edge all around the blanket – but in the end I just added an edge to the shapes
that didn’t have one.
As well as the blanket I also knitted this little jacket – using my usual baby jacket pattern which I have used many times before.
It is a simple design and ideal for boys or girls. Because of its simplicity – it is ideal for very patterned or multi-coloured yarn like this.
