This is a soft and scrumptious 100% cotton blanket made from my worsted weight Country Cotton yarn in the color "Biscuit". For embellishments and trim I used Evening Lilacs and Green Pears.

The Sweet Pea blanket has a rich, well-groomed country look because of the stitch pattern yet is very economical to knit if you buy my worsted weight cotton yarn on cones. Each $10.00 cone holds about 680 yards; you need less than 900 yards to complete the blanket, which means you will have plenty of left over yarn for one or several knitted soft “building” blocks, also included in this pattern pack.

The pattern also includes instructions for modifying the blanket to make an adult-sized throw blanket. We offer the pattern as an online download or printed. NEW!! Kits are now available for the Sweet Pea Baby Blanket and Soft Block or an adult-sized throw (below, right).

My patterns feature:

• Beautiful, scrapbook style full-color coversheet (view sample pages)
• Complete list of materials and yardage requirements
• Color closeup photos of stitch patterns with detailed instructions
• Personal journal page for your own project notes and photo
• Black and white reference photo for easier color visualization
