Lately, I've had requests for baby blankets and thought perhaps I might not be the only one.

This blanket is done in garter stitch on the diagonal. I've seen almost everyone int he group working on one of these as a dish cloth. All you have to do is make it a little larger to surround a small child.
If you are on the go and would prefer to make a blanket in smaller increments, you could try basically the same pattern like this:

This one is in basketweave - a pretty pattern I've seen many of our ladies work on.

For something simple, quick, and pretty, the patterns should fill your gift-giving needs.
Happy crafting,
