The pattern features the Showy Decrease. It is a simple modification to k2tog that results in a raised stitch that creates pattern on the smooth surface of stockinette. It’s what makes this blanket stand out.

It starts with the Woven Cast On that creates a decorative, bulky edge that has some give.

Pattern includes links to blog posts, photo tutorials and videos to help with the new techniques.

The blog for the original hat has lots of details you’ll want for the blanket too.

If you’d like more full size photos you’ll find them on the post announcing the blanket.
