Most of the couples I make these for don't want to know the sex of the baby they are having and that's how Que Sera Sera came into being. The last one I made was for my own grandson and as we knew he was going to be a little boy I came up with Mr Blue Sky and more recently a friends daughter had twins a boy and a little girl and so Pretty in Pink came about. All the blankets are made using Stylecraft Special DK apart from where indicated and using a solid granny square details of which you can find here and all of them are worked following the pattern of my Solid Granny Square Snuggle Blanket pattern which you can find here. Each blanket will take 200g each of your contrast colours and 300g of white, average cost for the wool to make a snuggle blanket is £14 or approximately $18.

I must admit I love making these blankets they have become almost second nature to make and I have an ever increasing collection of thank you cards expressing the recipients gratitude which is always lovely and is usually accompanied by a photograph of the new addition to the family lying on or under said blanket.
