Alpaca Baby Texture Blanket Knitting Pattern
Create a timeless baby blanket featuring a beautiful combination of textured stitch patterns arranged in elegant panels. Alternating diamond, dot, double moss and stocking stitch sections add visual interest while the wide garter stitch border frames the blanket with a classic, polished finish.
Worked flat on a circular needle to comfortably accommodate the large number of stitches, the blanket combines repeating textured panels with simple garter stitch borders. The result is a cosy, reversible blanket that's perfect for cots, prams or as a treasured handmade gift.
Photographed in Alpaca Yarns Inca Spun Worsted or Tweed, a soft, warm yarn that provides excellent stitch definition and creates beautifully defined textured patterns.
