The baby in your life will love this stimulating play blanket & hat made in MinnowMerino yarn from Jil Eaton. The soft and cushy blanket is surrounded by fun, brightly colored knitted shapes to play with. The adorable matching hat is knit with the remainders of each different colored skein and comes in three sizes - newborn, 6 months, and 1-2 years. The set makes a fabulous gift to welcome a new baby.

MinnowMerino is a super-soft, machine-washable, worsted-weight merino that comes in an array of bright, kid-friendly colors. The loose twist of the extra-fine merino allows for knits that feel soft and cozy while being super lightweight.

This blanket will knit up quickly on size 11 needles with two different color strands of yarn held together. The garter stitch pattern is perfect for a beginner project, while the different shapes added around the edge allow you try out new skills like cables and button-holes on a manageably small scale. Don't miss out on this fantastic and fun project!

This kit requires a size 11US 24" circular needles and size 8US double-pointed needles, not included.
