Breezy Winter Baby Blanket

We´ve knitted up the Breezy Summer Baby Blanket in a Winter version, and we love it. Abuelita Baby Merino is a fingering weight 1-ply yarn with some irregularieties. It´s just perfect for this pattern. The stripes makes it motivating, and the pattern is just gorgeous, as well as quite simple;)
