This pattern is worked with two strands of yarn together which is switched out to allow for the subtle color changes.

With its modern, colour-block look it would make a lovely gift for a dorm room-student, or even for the man in your life in his favourite sports-team colours.

Step-by-step photo’s are included to demonstrate the herringbone stitch, which gives the lovely texture to this blanket. Once you get the hang of the stitch, you will find this blanket more “easy” than “intermediate”.

Detailed step-by-step photo’s are also included for the placement of stitches for the border.
