Pumpkin Patch Baby Blanket
About the Design: This adorable baby blanket pattern is expertly crafted using doubled strands of Cascade Yarns Eco+ Peruvian wool yarn, ensuring a soft, warm, and comfortable feel—perfect for your little one. The design features charming pumpkin blocks, each of which is easily portable, making it convenient for knitting on-the-go. The blanket is skillfully composed of six whole blocks and four half blocks, allowing for a unique visual appeal. Each block is meticulously either mattress stitched or slip stitch crocheted to connect to its neighbors, while the rows of blocks are beautifully duplicate stitched together for a polished finish. For added detail, the seed stitch edging is created one side at a time, giving it a delicate and textured border. The delightful pumpkin stems are knit separately and securely sewn on, while the whimsical couched vine tendrils add the perfect final embellishment to this one-of-a-kind baby blanket.
Gauge: Achieve a gauge of 14 stitches and 20 rows = 4 inches (10 cm) in stockinette stitch using two strands of yarn held together with size 10.5 knitting needles, or use the needle size that provides the correct gauge. To ensure the best results and to save time, be sure to check your gauge before starting your project!
