Help quick and easy pattern needed

I keep meaning to knit something for my grandbabies - they are now over 4years old and I know that the bigger they get the longer it will take.
The Blanket is a great idea Granny23 & baubles.
My mother-in-law made some funny little knitted teddies for my two youngest that didn't seem to take long and were quite sweet. I think the pattern was from this website: http://www.teddiesfortragedies.org.uk

Baubles, do you know of a uk stockist for the Pom Pom yarn? I'm keen to get started

Ah lluvcruz, I should have checked that particular pattern! I used a pair of ordinary needles. YouTube has loads of tutorials which are really useful.

Good luck & let us know when the baby arrives

Thank you both - perfect solution.
Baubles - I've never used circular needles. Is there a special technique.?

Another easy peasy blanket in Pom Pom wool here
It is simple & knits up really quickly.

Chunky Wool + Chunky Pins.

Cast on -say 60 stiches. Knit 5 rows plain.
Then continue in Stocking stitch ( 1 row plain, one row purl ) for 50 rows
but with the first 5 stitches and last 5 always plain in every row to create a border.

Last 5 rows (55 to 60) all plain again. Cast off.

Eh Voila! One small blanket to tuck into a push chair or over a car seat, which may well become a 'comfort blanket' in the future.

Easiest thing I know and very nice if you choose a smashing wool.
No excuses necessary for late start - tell them you were waiting to see if baby was boy or girl.

Wait and see what they want for the new baby and make a non-knitted contribution. Don't try to compete with the other gran.
