★ I’m buzzing about this one

The Buzzing Beehive Blanket was a surprise project I enjoyed more than I imagined. Worked as written, it’s a throw. Use a lighter weight yarn and go down a hook size, and it becomes a sweet gender neutral baby blanket gift.

NEW: This pattern now comes with an added interactive version in the Briana K Stitch app.

You still get the printable PDF you know and love. Inside the app you also get to check off every row as you work it, so your place is saved when life interrupts.

Bees do such hard work for our environment. Since we moved to a home with citrus trees, I see the whole tree swarming with them sometimes, and it makes me smile knowing they help us grow amazing fruit and flowers. One small act can create a big outcome.
