Basketweave Blanket by Donna Higgins
Knit, purl, repeat. That's the whole secret.
A reversible basketweave baby blanket from Donna Higgins for Big Bad Wool. It looks great on both sides and works for any baby, boy or girl.
If you can knit, purl, and move a marker, you can make this. It's a perfect step up for the adventurous beginner, and exact gauge isn't critical.
Made to be used, gently washed, and loved to pieces. Finish it with a 'wear it out' sewn-in tag, and when you're gifting, add a 'wear it out' hang tag with care instructions.
