Elegant Baby Blanket #2 features vines and bobbles along the border of the blanket with a simple yet interesting twisted stockinette central panel. It is worked in worsted weight yarn which makes it a fairly quick knit but still fun. A simple crochet edging finishes it off nicely. It is the perfect size for a car seat or stroller which makes it very practical when traveling with your little one out and about.

Both charted and written instructions for the bobble and vine patterns (which are adaptations of stitches found in 50 Fabulous Knit Stitches by Rita Weiss) are included. Happy Knitting!
