This pattern was designed especially for Project Legacy Shawls. We began with just shawls and have expanded our charity work to include lapghans.

The size given in the directions is a small size meant to lay over a patient for warmth or to be used as a lap robe for those who use wheelchairs.

The lapghan has a top and bottom border as well as garter stitch borders on both sides. The central portion is a 30 row repeat so the length can easily be adjusted. The picture shows it as 35” long x 37” wide. The width can be adjusted but would require some math.

I doubled the Universal Yarn Offbeat so that it approximated a bulky yarn. The striping effect is solely the result of the yarn. I did not manipulate the yarn in any way.
