Turn simple knit and purl stitches into two striking geometric blankets with the Criss Cross and Parallel Lines baby blanket knitting pattern bundle. Written for beginners, these textured designs create an impressive finish without cables, lace stitches or complicated shaping.
Criss Cross produces a crisp interlocking pattern of diagonal lines, giving the knitted fabric a distinctive lattice effect. Its repeating texture adds plenty of visual interest while remaining straightforward to work from the written row-by-row instructions.
Parallel Lines uses alternating areas of knit and purl to form bold directional ridges across the blanket. The balanced geometric pattern is satisfying to watch develop and offers a relaxing project once the repeat becomes familiar.
Both beginner baby blanket knitting patterns are worked in one piece using DK yarn. The side borders are formed as you knit, so there are no separate pieces to join and no stitches to pick up afterwards. Each design measures approximately 33 × 33 inches (84 × 84cm), and the PDF includes guidance for changing the blanket width.
This two-pattern bundle is ideal for knitters looking for easy textured baby blanket patterns, a manageable first blanket project or a modern handmade gift for a new arrival.
The Criss Cross and Parallel Lines knitting patterns are supplied together as a printable PDF digital download, ready to view on your preferred device or print at home.
