The Austin Baby Blanket comes from the same school of thought as both Henry and Riley. My sample blanket was knitting earlier this summer whilst my son was sitting his final exams at school. As you can imagine, this was a busy and stressful time for us all and I didn’t want to knit anything complicated.

Knitting using Garter Stitch is my ultimate comfort project, so it was obvious that during a stressful time in my life I would be drawn back to it.

Gauge is not important for this project.
