Cuddly Soft Baby Blanket Knitting Pattern
This little baby blanket knitting pattern is so cuddly, soft and easy to knit, you will want to knit this for all the new babies in your life!
If you can knit, purl, yarn over and knit 2 together, this pattern will be easy for you. I’ve made this blanket several times while reading or watching TV. It just whips up so quickly and is a hit at the baby showers.
This baby blanket knitting pattern can be made for any length or width.
Yarn
For this project I used about 50 yards of Hobby Lobby’s I Love This Yarn. And oh how I love it! It is 100% acrylic it is great for young parents who enjoy throwing the blankets in and out of the washer and dryer without worry. It simply gets softer and softer with wash and wear.
I Love This Yarn is available at Hobby Lobby online.

To achieve the multi color effect, I knit each section with a different color of “I Love This Yarn”. It was a great stashbusting project and I was able to use the colors in the baby’s nursery.
I recommend using acrylic yarn for this project because I have found time and again that even when new parents have the best intentions, the blankets made with washable wool end up in the dryer too many times and get felted.
