Worked in a simple but clever development of a combination of Eyelet Ridge pattern and Old Shale, this pretty blanket is really snuggly and a true enjoyment to make. Large enough to make a good-sized crib blanket, it is also trim enough to be a cover-up in a car travel seat or stroller and it could easily be worked in a different shade or yarn quality to create a lovely lap blanket for a travelling adult. It is sure to become a treasured must-have pattern in your library and an asset to your knitting portfolio.
