Shadow Diamonds Baby Blanket
Skill Level: ★★ Easy / Beginner

This is a soft and stylish baby blanket featuring an elegant shadow-knit pattern. Its textured look and cozy feel make it ideal both for everyday use and as a thoughtful handmade gift for special occasions such as baby showers, newborn celebrations, or as a soft and stylish receiving blanket.

This blanket is made using the shadow knitting technique - a combination of knit and purl stitches that creates a raised diamond pattern. The effect becomes especially visible when light hits the surface from different angles, adding interesting depth and dimension. The technique is quite simple and accessible even to beginner knitters, but the result is a lovely, textured blanket that looks more complex than it actually is.
Even with basic knitting skills, you can create this beautiful blanket by following the detailed instructions and step-by-step guide.
