Slip Square Baby Blanket
by: Sarah Warren
This blanket knits up quickly, and the pattern is simple enough for you to watch TV or listen to a good book while you knit! The slip stitches give the blanket a professional finished edge, while the boucle creates fuzzy, nubby stripes. Gauge is not terribly important is this piece though the finished product shouldmeasure 38 inches by 38 inches.
