Cable Fantasy Baby Blanket

Today I'd like to share my first project for 2016 - Cable Fantasy Baby Blanket. It is also my very first design for my newborn daughter Veronica! I can't believe I'm a mum of two little girls now!

Because my newborn daughter is not ready yet for modeling her new blanket by herself my older princess is happy to help me with the pictures :).

So this super cozy blanket is knitted with fancy cable pattern in beautiful mandarin shade. For this blanket I used lovely worsted weight wool yarn Cascade 220 superwash. This soft and warm yarn looks great with cable patterns. It is one of my favorite yarns for winter time.

The blanket is knitted back and forth on circular needles and the edging is knitted in the round. The size of the blanket is approximately 74 x 86 cm.

I wrote the knitting pattern for this blanket which is available from one of my pattern stores. The knitting pattern is easy to follow and suitable for intermediate knitters. It has six pages of instructions, cable charts and row-by-row instructions for them and picture.

Temptation Poncho and Hat Set

The weather is getting colder and colder so it is time for warm and cozy knits. Please welcome my new super cozy knitted design - Temptation Poncho and Hat set. I knitted this set for my little daughter to keep her warm and stylish this winter season.

Temptation set is one of my favorite knitted garments that I made for Sophie. She loves it so much. She has received many compliments and smiles from people around to her new outfit.

I really love this beautiful cable pattern with bobbles in the center.  I made a large thick pompom to decorate the hat.

This set is knitted with Cascade Ecological wool and size 9 (5.5 mm) knitting needles. Poncho is knitted back and forth and the hat is knitted in the round.

I wrote a knitting pattern for this set for the following sizes: 2–3 years; 4-5 years; 6-7 years; 8-9 years; 10-12 years. It was test knitted on Ravelry. Thank you so much ladies for your help and feedback :)
