Alphabet Baby Blanket
This exclusive design for Row House by Erika Knight will teach beginners how to knit an heirloom blanket for a cherished baby. The blanket is made up of thirty squares, each worked in simple knit and purl stitches with a garter stitch edge. It's available as a Design or as a Kit - you choose.
This is the perfect project for a knit-along or for an heirloom present made by a group of friends and family. Three squares can be made from one 50 g ball of Erika Knight Gossypium Cotton. The samples are in the Montagu and Harley color palettes in the Kit.
Our Row House Tutorial Design integrates our skills videos via hotlinks in the PDF to teach you the basics of knitting. No knitting experience necessary.
