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 kiyomi yim on 2013-04-06 *****
Simple enough pattern that I can watch tv at the same time and not worry about forgetting where I am in the pattern. :)

But I am surprised how thick and heavy it came out using two strands together -- it feels too heavy for a baby blanket. I think I'll make another one with a single strand and see how that comes out.
