The big sister of the Sprouting Brioche Baby Blanket is here! This one is larger 42 x 42”, and flat lying. The constriction of the blanket is very unique, beginning in the center using the magic loop method. Then increasing and eventually knitting in the round on 2 circular needles. The increases are simple to follow with placed stitch markers. Two different weight yarns are used to create a more delicate brioche fabric.
