#6. Little Dove Lace Baby Blanket Free Knitting Pattern
This blanket is knit using a simple pattern repeat that is framed by rows of seed stitch. The simple design in a luxurious yarn makes Little Dove the perfect blanket to snuggle a precious little one, or to use as a lap blanket to spend a cozy afternoon on a sofa.
The width and height can be easily adjusted by increasing (or decreasing) the number of repeats that are knit, therefore the gauge for Little Dove is not crucial.

#8. Sam’s Baby Blanket Free Knitting Pattern
This blanket uses a very popular stitch pattern, found in virtually all of my stitch dictionaries, with different names in each one. There's a lesson in that. You can pick any stitch you like from a dictionary and alternate it with the stockinette squares, altering the size of the stockinette square to match the stitch count of your lace square.
Easy.
