Bright stripes are perfect for baby blankets! This super simple pattern works up easily. There's no need to change yarns to create stripes; the new Mardi Gras Stripes colorway of Jamie does all of the work for you.

Bright Knit Baby Throw

Lion Brand® Jamie®

GAUGE:

18 sts + 25 rows = about 4 in. (10 cm) in St st (k on RS, p on WS). 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.

STITCH EXPLANATION:

PATTERN STITCH
Seed St (multiple of 2 sts)
Row 1: *K1, p1; rep from * to end of row.
Row 2: P the knit sts, and k the purl sts.
Rep Row 2 for Seed st.

NOTES:

1. A circular needle is used to accommodate the large number of sts. Work back and forth on circular needle as if working on straight needles.
2. Throw is worked in one piece in St st (k on RS, p on WS) with Seed st borders.
3. Markers are used to indicate the sts for the borders.

THROW
Cast on 134 sts.
Beginning Border
Work in Seed st for 6 rows.
Next Row (RS): Work in Seed st as established over first 5 sts for side border, place marker (pm), knit to last 5 sts, pm, work last 5 sts in Seed st for side border.
Note: In the following rows, slip the markers as you come to them.
Keeping the first and last 5 sts in Seed st for borders and the remaining sts in St st (k on RS, p on WS) work until piece measures about 30 in. (76 cm) from beginning, remove markers when working last row.
Ending Border
Work in Seed st for 6 rows.
