Sometimes all I want is an easy repeated stitch pattern, just to get my hands busy without thinking too much.

The Wattle stitch has such a nice texture, the blanket will look lovely both in solid yarn and variegated yarn. The blanket can be adjusted to any size and any type of yarn. Stitches used in this pattern: ch, sc, hdc, dc.
Spring Vibes Baby Blanket
Afghans and Blankets
When I designed this baby blanket, the snow just started melting and the fresh grass shoots were showing up in places. I wanted the Spring Vibes Baby Blanket to reflect just that. The white and grey blanket reminds me of the melted snow and the green, busy edging resembles the fresh grass. For this blanket, I use 2 strands of double knit yarn held together, one strand of white and one of grey, and the granny stripe stitch for the pattern. For the border, I use just one strand of double knit yarn in green and the layered scallops border.
