To begin with, this easy-peasy baby blanket is a traditional, simple baby throw with a gently textured surface. Thus, this one will be ideal for an outing to the park in a traditional bassinet pram.

To summarise, the name says it all. Indeed, between the gentle texture and the soft but well defined color palette, there's little you could add to this description. This project is, furthermore, a great example of a pattern where the main stitching also defines its own edge, without the need for a separate border, if that's your preference.

This is a fun, ribbed wrap or seat cover. While its texture seems more complex, it's not hard to make and is so pleasant to the touch.

However if a polychrome project like the previous one is a little too loud for you, and a monochrome one is not loud enough, why not try one like this one? Indeed, we could call it an oligochrome for having just a few colors. As a consequence of the highly contrasting two color main part, it gets a lovely geometric pattern that is topped off with a golden tasseled edge. Wow!.

To begin with, this project is made using the Ribbed Diamond Blanket pattern. This pattern is especially interesting, because it mainly uses texture to delineate the constituent diamonds from one another. Combined with the velvet yarn, this is a blanket fit for a king.

While this waterfall ripple rainbow blanket will be a quick project, it's still a stylish and beautiful piece to be given as a gift for a shower, wedding or birthday. Although it uses chevrons or zigzags, the repeating sequence gives a wave-like appearance. The size is arbitrary, but the beauty is timeless as well as highly variable through the selection of colors.

This beautiful wool eater blanket will look incredible in every color palette you'll choose to do it in. Above all, it's a classic project, that will embellish your home no matter if your style is more vintage or modern. I really believe, it's also a wonderful idea for a gift. I’d love to receive such a cute blankie!
