When I was designing this blanket, I wanted to create a bold, color-block look. Something clean, easy to build, and full of texture. Something that would work in both modern and traditional settings with an advantage. Instead of the traditional squares, I set out to create a shape that was less square and more lively. By choosing stitches that worked in different widths, I was able to create a look that has some shape, without the hassle of increasing, decreasing, or sewing a lot.
This blanket has a beautiful texture and would work well in very muted tones to blend in or can get off the couch with bolder color options. Either way, it’s full of moxie and so easy to make and finish.
