It can be hard to knit for new arrivals, especially if you don’t know which variety it is going to be. But rainbows suit everyone, and this ultra-simple garter stitch blanket is perfect for keeping any baby snuggled up. It is great for beginners, too, as all you do is knit. The edging is crocheted on in two easy stitch types.

This pattern is exclusive to JOMO Knits by Christine Boggis which is available to purchase via GMC Books and GMC Publications.
