Sweet Honeycomb Waffle Weave Baby Blanket
These baby blankets use a waffle weave structure called Brighton honeycomb. This waffle weave technique has squares that offset each other rather than squares that line up horizontally and vertically.
While most waffle weaves have depressions on both sides of the cloth, Brighton honeycomb has depressions on only one side of the cloth for a baby blanket that is smooth on one side and textured on the other.
The perfect warm and snuggly baby blanket!
Yarns: Aurora Earth 8/2 cotton is the dream yarn for babies, keeping them snuggly warm.
Finished size: two hemmed baby blankets 36" x 36 each
Equipment needed: 8 shaft loom, 40" weaving width; 8 dent reed.
Instructions needed: Handwoven May/June 2012 from Long Thread Media for complete instructions.
