Description
This knitting pattern PDF is for the Latticework Baby Blanket - a classic textured blanket for baby.
It is completely worked in one piece, beginning with the bottom border. The blanket edges are bordered with garter stitch.
The latticework stitch pattern is made up of alternating stocking stitch tiles bordered by garter stitch. Every right side row of the blanket is a knit row. The stitch pattern can be worked from the chart or the written instructions.
The pattern includes tips to assist with counting rows and reading your knitting to achieve success.
The Latticework Baby Blanket is suitable for both newer knitters and more experienced knitters wanting a knitting project with minimal finishing. New knitters will have completed a few knitting projects and be ready to tackle a larger knit. Knitters should be confident to cast on and cast off, and able to work knit and purl stitches in the same row.
