♫ The Music ♫
In A Matter of Heart, Stan Rogers, balladeer extraordinaire with strong ties to the Maritimes, sings: “For in whatever we dream of, what we some day want to be, It’s a matter of heart.” Dreams and heartfelt wishes will be sent to treasured little ones with this special knit.

This blanket is knit flat from the bottom up. The central cable panel is surrounded by single Moss stitch borders on all sides. Can you see the endearing hearts in the cables? Tiny moss stitch diamond elements within the cables echo the border pattern.

Two full sets of directions are included: one for those who prefer to work from charts and one for those who prefer to work from written instructions only.
