Product Information
Crucci presents a knitting pattern for two sizes of Baby Blankets in a gorgeous Merino Crepe spun DK 8ply wool yarn.
Knitted flat the pattern has a range of 'blocks' of stitch patterns, bobbles and textures to look like a patchwork. No sewing up or joining blocks - just weave in the ends.
This is an intermediate pattern suitable for most knitters and includes instructions to make each texture.
Two sizes (approx.):
Size 1 - 75cm wide x 90cm long
Size 2 - 60cm wide x 75cm long
Gauge: 22 sts and 30 rows over 10cm square swatch in stocking stitch using a 4mm knitting needle, or size as required to get the correct gauge.

Also requires:
1 pair each of 4mm Knitting needles - try using a circular needle to accommodate the larger number of stitches.
