Baby Leaf Blanket Knitting Pattern

Knit Baby's First Keepsake Blanket

When a new baby is on the way, you want to give something that shows how much you care.This leaf and cable blanket gives you a gift that looks special and gets kept for years.

             

It looks detailed, but it's built from short 6-row repeats and just one type of cable.
Once the rhythm clicks, the sections start to flow and the blanket grows faster than you expect.

Skill Level: Confident Beginner to Intermediate
Finished Size: 25 × 30 in (64 × 76 cm)

• Leaf lace, cables, and garter sections take turns, so there's always something new coming up in the next few rows.
• Every row is spelled out, and the repeats are clearly marked so you always know where you are.
• The garter borders are worked as you go, so there's no separate edging to add at the end. Just cast off and weave in your ends.

           "I thought the leaves would be tricky, but the repeats made sense fast. It looks so much harder than it was."
