Description

A baby blanket knitting pattern featuring animal characters. Perfect for the nursery or for snuggling up on the sofa with your little one. The animals include bear, pig, sheep, cow, penguin, cat, owl, badger.

Easy to knit in stocking stitch and large charts to follow for the animals. There is a garter stitch border around the blanket which you knit as you go along and this avoids the edges curling.
