0182 Babes in Garter Stitch Blankets

Description

Garter Stitch was the stitch of choice for many grandmothers when knitting for babies. Times haven’t changed that much.

A sport weight yarn works great.  I like to add a little interest by using 2 strands of different  yarns.

• 1 strand of Cristal + 1 strand of Kitty – tension 10
• 1 strand of Sport works likely – tension 9

Amount:  about 16 ounces
