Where do I get pattern for the #1 Beautiful Beginner Baby Blanket shown on list as Minimalist Baby Blanket with the ruffle? Tried clicking button but only goes to ads for other site but not that one. very frustrating. could someone please explain where to find. Thanks Kathy

Do you make a stitch to add stitches when picking up and knitting 124 on the 62 cast off and on stitches doing ruffle?

Put ruffles on anything and I am there. The instructions for both the main part of the blanket and the ruffles look easy to follow. If you wanted you could do the ruffles in a difficult color or something a little darker than the main color. It will look lovely. Thank you for the pattern.

If I am picking up stitches on the cast off/on edge and there are 62, how do I pick up stitches and knit to make it 124?

Bernat Soft Boucle recommended for this blanket is apparently discontinued. Please suggest a substitute.

This is a delicate looking blanket! I can't believe it is done in chunky yarn, and I really like the ruffle around the edge. The pattern is super easy to follow. Does anyone think it could be converted to worsted weight yarn for a lighter blanket? I understand I would just have to do more stitches for the body, but what would it do to the ruffle?

What a pretty and delicate looking blanket. This seems like it would be an easy initial pattern to tackle.
