Pattern Description:

What better way to keep your baby snug than a hand knit blanket? This blanket is simple to knit, uses up smaller amounts of yarn and features colourful stripes and bobbles to stimulate babys senses. Worked from the center out beginning with Judys Magic Cast On, increases are used at each corner and the blanket is finished off with an i-cord bind off. Bobbles are worked randomly, as you knit, with a guide on which row they are to be worked. Jadyn Blanket is inspired by my cousins little daughter who is a super hero of a girl!
