9 Patch
One square a month for 9 months is all it takes to complete this lightweight washable baby blanket.
Expectant mothers who don’t knit - consider a 9 Patch baby shower. Simply recruit 9 knitters, divide the yarn and they’ll have it done in due time. Expecting twins? Just 9 - 50 gram skeins for the blocks will make two, almost exactly the same.
Gauge: 8 sts = 1” Finished Size: Approximately 30” x 30”
Supplies: MC - 25 grams of 9 different colors of fingering weight yarn
CC - 100 grams of a solid fingering weight yarn for crochet border
Use an unexpected color to dramatically ‘frame’ this project.
Size 2 DPN’s
Size 2-16 and 24” circular needle
