Super Easy Basketweave Baby Blanket

This pattern is really simple and fast! It’s quite hard to believe that such a nice looking blanket could be so easy to make! The texture created by this stitch suggests softness.  This Basket Weave Baby Blanket by Dot Matthews looks so warm and cozy! If you’re aiming to make a baby blanket using this pattern, make sure you follow the yarn recommendations. The texture is so reach so you don’t want this blanket too heavy for a baby blanket.  The basket stitch pattern can always be used to make a lovely lap blanket, an adult afghan or even a cover for a pillow.
