Garter Stitch Baby Blanket | Beginner Friendly
I knitted this precious baby blanket with an eyelet border and it’s so sweet and perfect for a newborn or for a stroller blankie! It’s super easy and beginner friendly! It’s considered a corner to corner (C2C) blanket, which is very popular.
It makes a perfect gift for a new mama and combined with a basket of goodies, it’s a lovely baby shower gift!
Email me if you have any questions or if you’d like to share your photos of your finished blankets or any other projects you've made from my videos. I would love to see them!

K all 5 stitches
K2, YO, knit to the end
Repeat this pattern until the desired half way size
I ended with 148 stitches on my needle, then started my decreases
Decreasing
K1, K2 together, YO, K2 together, K to the end
K until you have 5 stitches left on needle
K1, K2 together, K the last 2 together
K3 together

Thank you for making a baby blanket!! I had my aneurysm 13 years ago. I couldn’t speak or walk afterwards. Now, I can talk, using my wheelchair, read, watching TV and KNIT!! I made 14 scarves for my friends who helped me in the Hershey Hospital!! I am paralyzed with my right hand and leg. I write cursively with my left hand. I can knit, too!! I want to give a yellow baby blanket for my son and wife....NO, they aren’t pregnant!! But, I will give it to them when they !! Thank you, indeed ❤️

God bless you! I had to have an double bypass when I was 48, they say it's genetics and being adopted with no health history doesn't help. I am now 55 will be 56 in July. I now suffer from peripheral artery disease, neuropathy in both my feet stage 5, have had as of this past Wed. 8 catherizations, facing another open heart as now I have 2 blockages on the left side of my heart and thickening of my heart which I am guessing is from the 3 silent heart attacks I've had,atheroscrolosis PAD and of course the main culprit Diabetes. They are afraid I may have a stroke/massive heart attack, I have been crocheting since I was 5 and now have trouble due to numbness in my hands, so as to not lose muscle memory I have started knitting again. You are a true inspiration! I've been severely depressed from all this because I am a big outdoor person, and now I can't garden like I used to, can't get back up on my own because of 3 back operations 12 years ago when a chiropractor ruptured all my discs in my lower lumbar and all my rods and screws need tobe replaced and they won't touch me until we get my heart under control. So now I knit or crochet every day. I am in a motorcycle ministry, haven't been able to ride my motorcycle right now, but we have a charity coming up and I am donating shawls. baby blanets etc. to raffle off for terminally ill children. Again, thank you for your story! it gives me hope! God bless you!

SARAH... I had/have the same problem especially with my wrists. I am under the hospital for treatment and will be going to physio. My consultant told me not to stop (even though I have to manually uncurl my fingers sometimes) he suggested some hand and wrist exercises to do which at the moment I turned my nose up at him and muttered explicit words under my breath. They actually do work a little and I can push past the pain gradually each time. There is a channel on here that shows the said exercises with wrist turns and hand stretches. He also suggested to wear a wrist or arm splint. I have only just learnt how to knit so I can just do the old scarf headband squares in knit stitch. Don’t get me wrong I can’t do much at a time and have to take a lot of breaks and it’s so frustrating. I don’t know what your problem is but it’s worth a try. Mine is excessive nerve damage from multiple chest wall surgeries and is now painful from elbows down. Massive life changing effects but I’m not hanging my needles up yet!! Take care

Love your choice of color. I am currently making baby blankets for my 4th grand baby. You said your a relatively new knitter, I'm so glad to see you teaching others! Can I suggest you try sometime slipping your first stitch, and knitting through the back loop on the last one. Sometimes peoples first stitch is loose and this will prevent that. Your blanket is lovely.♥️✝️

Oh Stacy! Thank you so much for that tip! I recently made a shawl that slipped the first stitch, I never knew why people did that, now I know! You are so sweet to suggest that!

Aw, you are so welcome! Since you are a beginner I would recommend making my fingerless gloves first. Here’s the link. 💖 Knitted Fingerless Gloves 💖 Beginner Friendly 💖 kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qK6SYJaL286tmoE.html Making a blanket will be easier for you once you learn to manage a smaller project. These gloves help you learn the basics. The blanket is great too, but starting with smaller projects helps with dexterity, as well. The blanket can be made with any size yarn and the needles should match the label. Also, the blanket will turn out larger or smaller depending on those two factors. Keep me posted 🥰🧶😀

Just happened upon your video, and love how you teach. not sure if it is on my end or yours but was a tad hard to hear. I've been knitting for 16 years, but never blankets, just fingerless gloves,hats,scarves and prayer shawls. I've seen various videos on this blanket, and I like yours a lot. Just thought I would toss a tip in that I learned from a friend who's been knitting forever,( I am more of a "hooker" lol that is a crocheter, been crocheting since I was 5) The tip is when you come to your last stitch to knit, put the yarn in front as if to purl, then slip the last stitch as to purl ( Don't purl the stitch though, just slip it purl-wise) and then put the working yarn to the back. It makes for a very nice, clean edge. Thanks again for a wonderful tutorial. God Bless!

Hi - I *just* finished this blanket! I used a multicolor yarn, which actually helped hide some of my mistakes. I'm a novice knitter and I honestly just knit to ease my anxiety when I'm reading for class (I'm a grad student!!), and this was so easy and is going to make such a sweet gift. I LOVE that the "hard" part of the knitting pattern is at the beginning because I can do that, then I don't have to look at it anymore while I knit, since like I said, I read at the same time. Thank you for sharing. :)

Hi. I'm loving the blanket. I've got almost 140 stitches and the side measures only 19" I'm using Berroco Comfort knitting worsted weight with #7 needles. I thought the larger needles would actually make it a bit larger. Am I using a much narrower yarn? Suggestions? Thanks.

I think that will work out to be about 36” square by the time you complete the blanket, which is what mine is. If you want it bigger and you have enough yarn, you can increase as much as you want, just end the half way point with an even number. Hope that helps 😀🧶👍🏻

Question, is there a way I can get a pair of knitting needles exactly like that or not? What kind of kit did they come in?
@SparklyOne 10 ай бұрын
These needles were from a estate sale. I’m guessing they are from the 1970”s or 80”s. I think it’s easier to use a circular needle though. I do have a link in my description box for Amazon and there are lots of choices there and some are very reasonably priced. I’ll add it below in another comment.

Hi Jackie! Thank you so much for your sweet comments. I'm not sure if you know, but there is a button on the video (if you're watching from a computer) that you can turn the volume up louder, so that could help you quite a bit. I am so happy to meet you! I'm in Southern California xoxo

Hey Rhonda, knitting needles like that sold out fast on Etsy I had my mom look and my mom said that they sold out really quickly. I don’t know if they’re gonna come back in stock or what’s going on she also told me you can’t return things on Etsy once you’re shopping on it Were those knitting Needles the ones that you’re using ever on Etsy or did they just come in a kit that your mother-in-law gave you? What did the kit look like? Maybe you can send me a picture of the kit that she sent you that those knitting noodles came in, would you mind?

@SparklyOne 2 жыл бұрын
Hi Beth, if you use a that large of a yarn, you might have to decrease once you get the desired width at the center of the square, verses the 148 stitches on my needles. Maybe somewhere between 80 & 100 stitches would be my guess. It might even be less? The yarn that I used was on a size 4 worsted weight and yours will turn out much larger. So, with that said, you are going to have to stop when you think it's wide enough and stopping on an even number row, then start your decrease. If you have any other questions, you can always email me at sparklyone60@gmail.com Happy knitting! xoxo
