Follow the easy chart to knit this adorable rocking horse or hobby horse baby blanket with many possible variations.

You could work all the horses in St st and the background in Rev St st or vice versa. Add more repeats across or down for a bigger blanket (additional yarn will be needed). Or you could work St st horses on the diagonal and Rev St horses diagonally in the other direction.

The rocking horse is charted. The rest of the pattern is written.
