Meaning ‘Goodnight’ in Welsh, Nos Da is a textured baby blanket that will keep a little one cosy and safe all night.

Worked in one piece with an integral moss stitch border, the central columns of diamonds add interest for the knitter, and tactile interest for the recipient! 

The pattern is fully written with an optional chart.
