The process of getting ready for a baby to arrive is exciting, joyful, and a little scary at times. So much needs to get done before you get to bring home that tiny bundle of joy. Schedules need to be adjusted, siblings need to be ready and accepting of a new companion, and the house needs to be turned into a safe and cozy haven for a tiny boy or girl.

Getting the nursery ready is not only a fun decorating spree, it’s also an extremely important process for expecting mothers to feel more in tune with their child even before he or she arrives. Activities like choosing a color palette and knitting a baby blanket are symbolic activities that are not only creative and relaxing, but emotional outlets for growth and reflection. Even if you choose to be surprised on the day of delivery, there are tons of ways to adorn the nursery with gender-neutral decorations, mementos, and keepsakes.

Knitting a baby blanket is a special, pre-delivery activity that all soon-to-be mothers should consider doing. Not sure how to knit a baby blanket? We’ve got tons of easy knitting patterns on AllFreeKnitting that are tailored for beginners.
