JASPER SIMPLE BLANKET
Skill Level
Easy
This super popular easy knit blanket knitting pattern is perfect for new knitters.
Simple knit and purl patterns are placed in block stripes across the blanket and surrounded by a simple garter stitch border. If you can cast on, knit, purl and cast off you will be able to knit this blanket.
This knitting pattern now has four blanket sizes!
I have included two baby blankets: A small square baby blanket that is perfect for small babies, buggies and car seats, and a longer rectangular baby blanket that is great for older babies at bedtime.
The medium and large throws/afghans are perfect for cosy family snuggles on the sofa.
The blanket shown here is the little square baby blanket, knitted with Debbie Bliss Rialto DK.
