Easy Diagonal Baby Blanket

I loves a easy baby blanket and this one is an absolute breeze to knit. You can ritz it up by using posh stitches are you can keep it simple like I have and use garter stitch!

You can be fancy and buy some lush chunky wool or you can be thrifty like I have and use odds and sods from your knitting basket doubled up!

And in all seriousness if you find yourself in a tight spot you can bust one of these out with like a day of solid knitting!!!! 

Anyway here's a brief tutorial on how to make this blanket.

Garter Stitch Diagonal Baby Blanket

*Use 6mm needles

*Use chunky wool or two strands of regular wool

*Cast on 3 stitches

*Work each row in garter stitch increasing 1 stitch at the end of each row

*Continue knitting in this manner until one of the shorter edges of the blanket is the width you would like your blanket to be

*Now decrease 1 stitch at the end of every row until only three remain.

*Cast off

*optional* crochet a border

In other news! Boy was it freezing this morning! I honestly felt like my toes might drop off! 

I am however wearing a pretty snazzy new make in the hopes of photographing it later so that cheered me up!

And I posted a new video this week of what I'm planning on making in December! 

Obviously though I've not included Christmas presents because that would ruin the surprise!!!!

Much Love
