What is a better expression of surrounding someone with love than to literally wrap them in a handmade blanket! This Anther blanket is just the ticket for that.
This blanket highlights the beauty of ribbing. A simple ribbed border surrounds a series of rippled ribs that weave their way along the body like a winding stream. And thanks to the ribbed nature, the blanket looks equally beautiful on both the right and wrong side. Worsted weight yarn makes the knitting go fast and the end results warm and cozy.

Techniques used in this pattern: long tail cast on, knit, purl, decreases, increases.

Since this is a blanket, exact gauge isn’t crucial. Feel free to play around with different fabrics, though note that doing so may result in a different yardage requirement.

Pattern is professionally tech edited and test knit by volunteers.
