BANANA BERRY BABY BLANKET


SIZE:
30 inches X 36 inches (32 inches X 32 inches)

MATERIALS:
Worsted weight yarn about 10 ounces of each color
US size 15 (10 mm) 24 inch circular
Tapestry needle

GAUGE:
11 sts = 4 inches

NOTES:
  1. Read instructions though before beginning.
  2. Blanket in photo is knit with one strand of Red Heart Super Saver in Banana Berry and one of Lion Brand Pound of Love in white. 
  3. I used a postage scale to weigh the Red Heart Super Saver and started the final garter stitch rows when there was ½ ounce left.  That worked out perfectly.
  4. If you want a larger blanket cast on in additional increments of 2 stitches.  You will need more yarn of course.
