LOVE this book!

I've had a couple of baby gifts to either buy or make this year so I went to my local library to see if I could find some useful knitting project ideas. I borrowed "Knit Baby Blankets", renewed it three times and realized I simply had to have this book. While it offers excellent and varied options for baby items (and not just blankets), some of the patterns can easily be adapted to other projects for all ages. It's comprehensive, and unlike knitting project books geared for more experienced knitters this takes little for granted. If you know what a baby, a blanket and yarn are and have strung loops together on knitting needles before you should be able to tackle any and all of the projects in this book. And besides, just look at that adorable baby on the front cover. That face always makes me smile and I don't even LIKE babies.

Knit Baby Blankets

An absolutely wonderful book filled with so much helpful information about knitting baby blankets. From suggestions to find and use and best yarn, care of the blanket, great descriptions of the type of blanket, i.e. receiving, crib or carriage blanket. And all of this information is within the first 21 pages. I found it very useful and I know I will refer to this book often. Some of the patterns are for a more experienced knitter. But there are plenty of great ideas for easy to knit blankets. The instructions were good and easy to follow. I would highly recommend this book for anyone who knits if only for the great information it contains.

A good selection

There are a number of baby blankets in here. They areange from the relatively easy to ones that are a bit more difficult. Each blanket is unique and beautiful. There are ones using different colors together and ones that utilize just one color. A great gift for anyone who knits a lot of baby blankets as gifts.
