Knit Color Block Blankets

Not only are the patterns stunning in Knit Color Block Blankets but the color pairs are eye pleasing and comforting. Color blocking is a technique in which you have blocks of color through your project, each section of color is very defined and the colors usually contrast each other.

Each of the patterns in this book are knit and classified as easy knits. I love the color inspiration inside the book and could look at the colors for a long time.

Color blocking is great for babies as they like the deep contrast of colors. Be sure to consider how much contrast there is if the blanket was changed to black and white tones.

Along with the color changes, the texture in these blankets is also great for babies. They will have a great time touching and cuddling with any one of these blankets.

Add rows and width to make one of these beautiful blankets for yourself!
