Little hearty baby blanket - FREE KNITTING PATTERN

My first "bigger" project this year!
After long searching on the Internet I came up with my own design for baby blanket!

The plan was to make 5 by 7 squares (50cm X 70 cm) to use it as a throw over in buggy but somehow I managed to make it 4 by 5 squares. The pregnant brain makes tricks.
Well, maybe one day I have to rip edging from one side (top or bottom) and add a few square rows.

It looks "right side" from both sides, includes only knit and purl stitches, very simple.
Yarn used: Debbie Bliss cashmerino dk, a bit more than 3 balls for this tiny blanky. 
(As an alternative DROPS yarn group B yarns can be used: DROPS Merino Extra Fine, DROPS Cotton Merino … Choose your favourite yarns here: )
Needles 3 mm (I knit loosely). 

A FREE PATTERN is available (please give me credit and link back to this post):
The pattern in English.

Make sure, you knit your own sample square and measure it. You might have to change the pattern if your stitches are taller.
