Knit 35 GORGEOUS and COLORFUL baby blankets, whether for your own little one or to give as cherished gifts.

Features patterns for the NURSERY, TRAVEL, and PLAY, from a newborn cocoon to a lightweight shawl and a tactile bobble blanket.

From the first car journey to an outing in a stroller, a knitted blanket will accompany a baby wherever they go. Laura Strutt has designed a teddy bear travel blanket that cleverly folds away into a pillow and a hooded wrap for keeping cozy in a sling.

For the nursery there is a soft crib cover and an overalls-style sleeping bag in breathable merino wool-perfect for a peaceful night's rest.

For playtime, there's a cotton-backed blanket that can double up as a rug to take out and about and a tiny comforter blanket guaranteed to become their closest companion.

With beautiful yarns, stunning designs, and a handy guide to all the techniques you'll need, there is a blanket here ready for you to make and for the new arrival to treasure for years to come.
