The Chevron Cherub Wrap is a beautifully striped, lightweight baby blanket made super soft with Knit Picks Cotlin DK or Comfy Worsted yarn!

Alternating colors on eyelet-laced chevron rows surrounded by a garter stitch border are created using stockinette stitch, yarn overs, and the central double decrease for skill building. Knit in monochromatic shades or contrasting colors or in stripes to represent your favorite sports team (see 2nd image), the stitch pattern is easily memorized while providing interest for the knitter.
