The Picot-Edge Baby Blanket

The Girl is Knitting a Striped Baby Blanket
The Girl is knitting a baby blanket for our newly pregnant friend. She chose the Churchmouse Picot-Edge Blanket, a simple garter-stitch pattern knit from corner to corner, based on the washcloths our grannies used to make. The pattern includes a picot edge to dress it up or it can be left unadorned. The Girl is knitting the "plain edge" option. Make it small in cotton or linen and you have a washcloth, or just keep on knitting for a grown-up throw or afghan. And best of all, this versatile pattern is written for three gauges (DK, Worsted and Chunky) so your yarn choices are virtually unlimited!

Rowan Pure Wool Worsted in 5 Colours
The Girl is using 5 colours of Rowan Pure Wool Worsted knit in 4" stripes with 5.5 mm Addi Circular Needles.
