This would be the perfect Baby Shower or New Born gift for the Piggy Baby of 2019. It is a simple and quick pattern with Stocking Stitch body and a Garter Stitch border, and you can use either the Intarsia or Duplicate Stitch technique to work the Piggy colour pattern into the blanket. The pattern provides both text and chart instruction so you can work on either one depending on which technique you are more comfortable with.
