A Simple Three-Color Baby Blanket
The beauty of this blanket comes from its simplicity. Wide stripes in blue, white and taupe create a calm modern look, while the textured border gives the blanket a neat finished edge.
The original design uses Berroco Vintage DK, but the color combination is easy to personalize for a nursery or baby gift.
Beginner-Friendly Construction
The blanket is worked flat, even though circular needles are used. The circular needle simply provides enough room to comfortably hold all of the blanket stitches.
A seed-stitch border runs along the sides of the blanket, surrounding the smoother striped center.
This combination gives newer knitters useful practice with both knit and purl stitches without making the project overly complicated.
Size, Yarn & Needles
The finished blocked blanket measures approximately 34 × 33 inches.
Jamey's original version uses three colors of Berroco Vintage DK: blue, white and taupe, together with US 10 / 6 mm circular needles.
If you substitute another DK yarn, make a swatch first if matching the original finished dimensions is important.
