If you can knit and purl, you can make this blanket! This is an easy pattern with both written directions and a photo tutorial showing how to carry the alternating colors of yarn up the sides so they don’t show. You don’t have to cut yarn and weave in endless ends! Hooray!

It only takes 1 ball each of two colors of self-striping Marble Chunky yarn, the softest acrylic I know. This size is suitable for babies, kids, lapghans, and throws.

The pattern is free online. Enjoy!
