Spring To Life Baby Blanket

Design by Sarah Ruane from Ned and Mimi.

The Spring to Life baby blanket is worked in alternating rows of V stitch and Bobble stitch. Once you have gotten the hang of these two stitches, it is very easy to finish. This pattern calls for Chunky/Size 5 yarn (I used Paintbox Yarns simply chunky) so works up very, very quickly – perfect for a last-minute, hand-made baby gift! The gorgeous green gradient symbolizes new life and makes the blanket ideal for a new baby boy or a girl.

Finished Size: Approx. 28.5” x 28.5” (72 cm x 72cm)
