Story behind “The Duchess” – In my office, I am known as “The Queen”. I call one of my co-workers, “Princess”. Princess is expecting the baby of the year – who we are calling “The Duchess”.

The Duchess is fit for your newest duchess, this 4-foot diameter blanket is made of soft, worsted-weight cotton yarn which is also machine washable for easy care. The blanket is knit in the round, starting at the very center and works outward as you knit the spiral-lace, hearts and finish-up with broken-rib and a rolled hem.

The directions are written and charted for your convenience.
