This beautifully designed blanket features a stunning Japanese lace pattern that seamlessly flows into a cozy garter stitch border and a central panel, creating a delightful visual and tactile experience for both babies and parents alike.

This charming baby blanket is crafted using Aran weight (10ply) wool on 5.5 mm (US 9, UK 5) needles, but feel free to use a wool blend, acrylic, or cotton yarn that matches the suggested gauge (17 stitches and 23 rows to achieve a 10 x 10 cm swatch). This flexibility allows you to customize the blanket to suit your preferences and budget, ensuring you can create the perfect piece for your little one.

We offer four adorable baby sizes to cater to various needs: the small cot blanket measuring 70 x 90 cm (28 x 35 inches); the large cot blanket at 90 x 110 cm (35 x 43 inches); the bassinet/stroller blanket measuring 55 x 70 cm (22 x 28 inches); and the square receiving blanket at 76 x 76 cm (30 x 30 inches).
