This blanket is knitted from a two-ply yarn which is very soft. It's not very heavy, but it makes a great bunting. The navy blue and tan are nice neutral colors that go with almost anything. There is a garter stitch border, and cables going up each "block", although the whole blanket is knit in one piece.

Using baby yarn with color A and size 8 needles, cast on 132 stitches. Knit 10 rows (stockinette stitch).
