Beam Baby Set
Designed by Amanda Rataj
This straightforward four-shaft project uses two weights of Beam Organic Cotton to create a lively, lightly textured blanket, and leaves enough yarn leftover to weave a pair of coordinating towels. The 3/1 Twill creates different stripe and color-dominance depending on the project. Soft and cuddly, these projects check all the boxes: feels great, easy to weave, and offers plenty of fun and creative color variations and are easily adapted to many width possibilities.
