Description

The Lacy Openwork knitting stitch would make a lovely baby blanket. It has a delicate airy look and feel to it. Our sample was kitted on size 8 needles using worsted weight yarn. You could knit it as our sample or use a baby weight yarn with smaller knitting needles.

4 Stitch pattern repeat.
