A perfect addition to any baby’s layette, this cellular-style blanket is light and airy – just right to tuck around the little one in their crib or pram.

The pattern is adaptable, so you can make it as large or as small as you wish, but I have specified yarn usage and stitch counts for two classic sizes - 2 x 50gm for the pram size, 4 x 50gm for the cot size. The original yarn is a wool cotton mix and an ideal substitute would be the same number of skeins of BC Garn Bio Balance

The design has been calculated to feature eyelets which lie in perfect symmetry on the fabric and the instructions are easy enough for even a beginner to master.

This is my go-to baby gift and I am rarely without one on my needles for TV or travel knitting; the pattern instructions have been passed around the family for many years and I am thrilled to release them for you to enjoy too!
