Rich texture with a little openwork sets a distinctive tone for a blanket in multiple sizes (S/M/L). This eye-catching design will appeal to men and women alike; the smallest size makes a great lap blanket or baby gift. Worked in an intermediate stitch pattern that is soothingly repetitive but never boring, this project is an excellent choice for a first attempt at openwork; it is also portable and easily memorized for knitters on the go. In any version, this design works up beautifully in a naturally squishy, airy fiber—the perfect thing for a few skeins of specialty farm yarn.
