New (free) pattern from Espace Tricot: Fair & Square Baby Blanket October 7, 2016 – Posted in: Espace Tricot Patterns, Free Pattern Fridays, Project Ideas
We have another new pattern for you this week! Fair & Square is a happy little baby blanket knit in the round from the center out. The fun stripes provide an opportunity to play with colour and the transitional knit/purl row between each stripe lends lovely texture and dimension. Knit with Rowan Baby Merino Silk DK, a machine washable blend of merino wool and silk, this blanket is squishy and soft and easy to care for – a perfect choice for the little ones in your life. Our sample is a generous 41″ square but the blanket can be easily reduced by eliminating colours. Modification instructions for a 32? square are provided in the pattern.

I recommend using smaller knitting needles for the center square

Lovely! Are there any direction for making this adult-sized?

Hello Anne,
There are no directions for making it bigger, but all you do is keep knitting and increasing as before. Since it is a square you can just keep going with either more colours or just making the colour stripes wider. It is a bit like a granny square, you keep making it bigger until you have the size you want. I hope that helps!
Best,
Mona
