Wrap yourself in the calming beauty of nature. Inspired by the gentle tones of the earth, this blanket is designed to bring peace and relaxation into your knitting.

Just as nature soothes the soul, each knitted stitch creates a sense of balance and calm. The result is more than a blanket — it’s a soft embrace that helps melt away stress in today’s busy, fast-paced world.

Bring comfort into your world, one stitch at a time.

This Blanket is a simple knit, consisting of the basic knit and purl stitch. There are no fancy cables, lace or decreases. However, the simple beauty of this design allows the blanket to shine! PLUS, you get to choose from one of 6 different sizes from a baby security blanket to a full size Afghan.
