Knitting Pattern for a Baby Blanket with a Funky Striped Pattern and Contrasting Crochet Stripes Creating a Wave Pattern (One Size).

Structure:
The blanket is worked in one piece back and forth in rows. You start with the hem in 2x2 ribbing in the CC 3. The main part of the blanket is worked in a cable pattern and with a striped pattern in CC 1 and CC 2. The blanket is then finished off with a hem in 2x2 ribbing in CC 3.
In the end, the main part of the design is worked: You are going to crochet contrasting stripes on the stockinette stitch cables – this way you will create a funky pattern for a beautiful and unique baby blanket!
