Sometimes, you just want to knit something simple, but adorable! I had received Knit Picks Heatherly worsted yarn, and I wanted to design a baby blanket with this soft and delicious yarn! This baby blanket flew off my needles. It was fun to design and knit! Watch the sections grow as you knit along.

Of course, there are so many size blankets you can knit for a baby. I decided to incorporate all the different sizes into one pattern. You can choose which size you want to knit!

The sizes are as follows (width x height):
Security:14” (35.5 cm) x 18” (46 cm)
Stroller:28” (71 cm) x 35” (89 cm)
Receiving:40” (102 cm) x 40” (102 cm)
Toddler:43” (109 cm) x 52” (132 cm)
Afghan:48” (122 cm) x 60” (152.5 cm)

Amount of yardage (One solid colour):
Security: 240 y / 216 m
Stroller: 885 y / 800 m
Receiving: 1420 y / 1280 m
Toddler: 2000 y / 1800 m
Afghan: 2580 y / 2325 m

I have also designed a few colour palettes you are free to choose from.  Plus, a design your own colour palette at the bottom:
