CHECKLIST FOR A NMCRS BABY BLANKET:
- Blanket must be at least 30X30 inches and no more than 32X32 inches.
- Blankets do not have to be square.
- Due to safety concerns, all chosen patterns must be tightly woven.
- Keep your yarn and blanket clean and smoke-free at all times.
- Due to allergies, keep your work and yarn protected from pets.
- Make your blanket washable by stitching loose yarn ends in. You may YOUTUBE how to do this. A simple knot may hold together only until washed so it should not be used.
- Blanket must be knitted by you!!
THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH FOR SHARING YOUR TIME AND TALENTS WITH OUR NEW PARENTS! YOUR WORK IS APPRECIATED! Each blanket knitted is worth 30 volunteer hours.
