This version of the Tiny Kisses baby blanket is knit with I Love This Yarn Prints in the color “River Ripple” from Hobby Lobby. The soft aqua tones are gently blended with hints of tan, creating a calm, watery feel that suits the simple texture perfectly. It’s cozy, easy to work with, and adds just enough visual interest without overwhelming the stitch pattern.

Needles
For my blankets I often recommend Knit Picks Needles. These are the Knitpicks: Mosaic Options Interchangeable Circular Needles that I love. I used US size 8 (5mm) needles for this blanket, which give it a soft, drapey feel without being too loose. The stitches have great definition, letting the texture shine through. It’s a comfortable size for beginners and makes the knitting flow smoothly.
