Appalachian Baby Design “Pick A Knit” Blanket Tutorial

In this video we walk through the techniques used in this gorgeous, heirloom-quality baby blanket from Appalachian Baby Design. The blanket is made with their 100% Organic Cotton, and is machine washable and dryable.

You can get your blanket kit HERE on the Appalachian Baby Design website.
