Baby Shōga Blanket

Beautiful Japanese stitch work

For centuries Japan has been a leader of innovation in the knitting world. We created this series to introduce our audience to some of Japan's amazing stitch work and pay homage to the influence their culture has had on knitting.

This pattern is a delight to knit and creates a beautiful baby blanket pattern.

The Shōga pattern is made easy with every alternate row being just knit/purl, making for a very therapeutic knit.
