dogwood - a fresh and lacy baby blanket by Emily Wessel

This darling baby blanket adds a sweet and romantic touch to any room. The bold graphic is as fresh as the spring and the new life that it brings.

sizing: Finished blanket will measure from 36” to 40” square; depending on gauge, yarn, and how aggressively you block the squares

materials: 750 yds of worsted weight yarn
sample shown in Dream in Colour Classy in ‘beach fog’

gauge: 18 sts / 4” in stockinette stitch

needles: US # 8 / 5.0 mm (or as required to meet gauge); double points and / or circular needles as desired for knitting in the round

The lace pattern that forms this blanket is charted. Four lace squares are knit separately from the centre outwards, and then sewn together. A full-sized blanket can be created by knitting 12 squares.
