From the Knit Picks Website:
This square baby blanket is knitted in the round, from the center out. Because it’s worked this way, this design is easily adaptable to any yarn weight. Choose a sock yarn for a thin, light blanket, or a worsted-weight yarn for a warm snuggle-up blanket. Swish DK is perfect for an in-between weight. The all-over lace pattern is simple enough to work while watching TV, but interesting enough that it won’t put you to sleep. This blanket would be a great heirloom gift for a precious little one.
