Little Loom Baby Blanket Knitting Pattern
Create a soft and cozy baby blanket featuring a beautiful basketweave stitch pattern, chunky texture and a simple knitted border.
The Little Loom Baby Blanket combines alternating knit and purl sections to create its woven-look texture while keeping the construction approachable for knitters who are comfortable with basic stitches and following a repeating row sequence.
The blanket is worked using two strands of DK / Sport weight yarn held together throughout, creating a thicker, warmer fabric with excellent stitch definition and a wonderfully cozy finished feel.
The finished blanket measures approximately 34 × 40" / 86 × 101.5 cm, making it a practical size for cribs, nursery chairs, strollers, tummy time and everyday cuddles.
