Introducing the B-loved baby blanket knitting pattern - a charming cable and lace design with an elegant moss stitch border. This delightful blanket is expertly knitted in one seamless piece, progressing from the bottom to the top, using durable DK yarn on 4mm needles. The B-loved baby blanket is the ideal size for a pram, making it perfect for cozy cuddles and keeping your little one snug and warm. This knitting pattern is designed specifically for intermediate to experienced knitters, as it requires proficiency in cable stitches and the ability to skillfully combine cabling with decreasing techniques.

For this project, we recommend using Drops Cotton Merino, a luxurious blend of 50% wool and 50% cotton. You will need 7 balls of 50g yarn, totaling 850 meters or approximately 930 yards. Selecting a soft, textured, plied smooth yarn with excellent stitch definition will ensure pleasing results, enhancing the beauty and intricacy of your knitting.

The suggested gauge for the B-loved pattern is 21 stitches and 28 rows as indicated on the ball band. When blocked, a 10cm² stocking stitch swatch knitted on 4mm needles should measure 22 stitches by 32 rows, ensuring your finished blanket comes out just right.

This heartwarming pattern was inspired by Bear Watts, a very special little boy who was diagnosed with Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome while still in utero. We are proud to announce that all proceeds from the sale of this knitting pattern will be generously pledged to the Little Hearts Matter charity, supporting children and families affected by congenital heart conditions.
