Cuddle Tight Baby Blanket
Lion Brand® Wool-Ease® Thick & Quick®
GAUGE:
10 stitches = 4 in. (10 cm) in Garter stitch (knit every row). 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.
NOTES:
Circular needle is used to accommodate large number of stitches. Work back and forth in rows as if knitting with straight needles.

Row 1: Knit.
Row 2: K 3, yo, k 2.

Cuddle Tight Baby Blanket Reviewed by Maureen Harrington on 2013-03-22
This was one of my first big knitting projects and it was amazingly easy. It also looked great and I am going to have trouble giving it away! I recommend this for beginning knitters.
