Moderne Baby Blanket Pattern
by Kay Gardiner & Ann Shayne
Directions for this project inMason Dixon Knitting, shown below. For adventurous types who want to go beyond blankets that look like traditional quilt patterns, the log cabin technique is a handy tool for free-form design. Get this: You do not need a "center patch". You do not need "strips". You knit a shape. It can be square, rectangular, triangular, or even curved. You bind off this piece. Then, you knit another shape onto it, by picking up stitches along an edge of the first piece. Piece by piece you create a beautiful baby blanket. Shown in 100% Superwash Merino Wool Bare (C1) and Swish Worsted Capri (C2), Dark Navy (C3) and Copper (C4).
