A beautiful filet blanket that is quick and easy to make. Perfect for gifting for any age (from new baby to nanna).

Note: This pattern is available for free on my blog. Select ‘visit pattern website’ (above right) on desktop or the URL for my blog site (below) on mobile.

This blanket can be made with yarn of any fibre and ply.

The mint blanket has been made with DK/8ply acrylic of approx 2000m. This is a large size throw rug and has 51 rounds made in total. It can be made with less rounds.

The multi-coloured gradient blanket has been made with 4ply acrylic/cotton blend of 1400m. This is a perfect size for a baby blanket.

There are three files available for download. Two are written pattern files. One has a stitch count after every stitch sequence. Beginners may prefer this document. Please decide which instructions you prefer to use before printing. There is also a document with simplified charts that is designed to be used in conjunction with the written pattern (rather than standalone).

A free matching beanie pattern is also available.

This blanket is dedicated to my youngest, beautiful boy, who radiates joy and compassion to all of those around him. He really is a diamond.
