Today’s pattern, Blissful Blocks Baby Blanket was designed by @madamestitch

There are so many things to love about this baby blanket – its unique design, its elegant look, its lightweight drape – to name a few. Made with a DK weight acrylic or cotton yarn, the blanket can be used in any season, especially during the summer when just a light cover will do.
