This is a very easy blanket to knit as it’s just simple, garter stitch squares. It’s only when you sew the squares together that it turns into … oblongs.

My blanket is knitted with DK weight yarn, a plain colour for the borders and two shades of variegated yarn for the coloured sections. I used 650g of yarn all together and my finished blanket measures 95 cm / 37”².

Having said that, you can use this pattern for other weights of yarn and I include detailed on instructions on how to do this so you can design your own blanket from this basic idea.

All my ravelry patterns are free to download but, if you enjoy them, please consider making a donation to the Children’s Liver Disease Foundation, a charity which funds research and supports the families of children with a liver disease. You can do this easily by going to my fundraising page www.justgiving.com/frankiesknittedstuff

Happy Knitting!
