Introduction
The Bambi Baby Blanket is a quick baby blanket perfect for a new bundle of joy. The blanket is designed for a small baby and perfect for use in Moses baskets and strollers. It would make a thoughtful baby shower gift too!
The blanket is worked in alternating rows of linked stitches and slip stitches in blocks of colour. The blanket is finished with rounds of single crochet and finally a round of slip stitch.
The pattern can be easily adjusted to larger/ smaller size and different colours, opening doors to endless possibility and creativity. The super bulky yarn makes it one of those projects that grow extremely quickly, so you can have a new blanket in an evening! This project is a great option if you would like to try your hand on super bulky yarn.
