Details

Crisp, fresh and classic white flowing into soft shades of grey make for a modern and elegant blanket for baby. Suitable for both boys and girls and sure to make a statement in baby’s nursery.

Knit with bulky yarn this blanket will knit up quickly and be lovely and warm on chilly days and squishy soft for play time on the floor.

The instructions have a nice method of creating a smooth chain finish to the edges and is so simple to do. I use it on most items I knit and find it easy to remember. That’s probably the biggest reason I like it.

The instructions are fully written out line by line.

The bear in the photographs, enjoying the blanket tremendously, is my husband’s cuddle bear from his childhood.

I just love this bear all tattered and much loved.

We should always be thankful for the “old” in our lives while we celebrate the new.
