Hooded Seed Stitch Baby Blanket

Lion Brand® Pound of Love®

GAUGE:

12 sts + 20 rows = 4 in. (10 cm) in Seed St with two strands held tog. BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

Hooded Seed Stitch Baby Blanket Reviewed by Kimberly A Rexroat on 2011-10-19 *****
This pattern is a dream to knit! I am thinking about making a larger one without the hood for me! I did split the yarn into 2 skeins before starting as suggested by a fellow knitter who ran into tangles when she made one without first splitting it.
