It’s diamonds for your little bundle of joy.

Undoubtedly, there are few more classic projects than a baby cover in diamonds. Of course, classic doesn’t mean stale. In fact, these are some of the most vibrant and contemporary designs. Indeed, how is this possible? Undoubtedly, a part of the reason is the broad adaptability of these projects and the great number of variations you can make on each one. Therefore, there is absolutely no reason for you to not attempt one of these wonderful and fun patterns, and every reason to do so. To summarize, this is a classic yet modern, fancy yet simple and thoroughly versatile baby blanket theme.

Diamond Stitch Baby Blanket

To begin with, the first baby cover in diamonds is a hemmed affair with wonderful color banding. In particular, the color transitions really make the otherwise gentle texture pop.

Next, here is another classic solution for a baby cover in diamonds. Without a doubt, the lovely crocheted edge greatly enhances the traditional diamond stitch. Moreover, the use of bamboo fibres enhances the sustainability of the product as well as giving it some additional, desirable properties.

While you can play with colors, even a baby cover in diamonds designed for ombre yarns will work well in monochrome. However, the color gradient here is just fabulous. That said, a little caveat is that this pattern is written in UK terms, so you need to brush up on your translations if you live don’t live there.

Following on, here is a little adaptation of The Bakewell Blanket by Stephanie with a beautiful, colorful edge. In particular, I appreciate the sharp transition from the base teal to the multihued edge: yum!
