Patchwork Throw Blanket
This blanket works up quickly in a bulky yarn with an intriguing patchwork pattern created by seed and basketweave stitches bordered by garter stitch. This pattern includes both fully written and charted instructions.
The finished size of this blanket is 50 inches by 50 inches at a gauge of 3 stitches/ 4 rows per inch (12 stitches/ 16 rows in 4-inch square) in stockinette stitch.
A solid knowledge of knit and purl stitches, along with cast on and cast off, is all you need to be able to follow these instructions. The pattern calls for a provisional cast on, but can easily be worked with any cast on you prefer.
You will need 4 balls of the Loops & Thread Charisma Big! yarn, but will have a little under half left over of the fourth ball.
I have made versions of this blanket in Carons Chunky Cakes Yarn on size 11 needles which works well. If you are looking to substitute yarn, I would choose a bulky yarn (size 5 or 6) with a little bit of stretch to it. The pattern of the blanket works best in a solid color or a yarn with long color repeats.
