Sova is a great blanket project for new knitters - simple garter stitch strips that are seamed together! It’s a wonderful way to practice your tension, and create a gorgeously soft, chequerboard blanket at the same time! Garter stitch is so squishy for babies, and Naturally Baby Soft is a gentle cotton and soy blend that is perfect for little ones to cuddle up with!
