Quilty
Get excited for Jimmy Beans Wool 2023 Blanket Club!
Quilty is a blanket knitted in modern, graphic blocks of glorious Madelinetosh color for a fun, adventurous knit all year long. This blanket is constructed using garter stitch blocks, log cabin and
triangle blocks. As you finish a section with your first color, feel free to place your live stitches on waste yarn or a stitch holder until the next color for that piece arrives. Gently steam or press finished blocks for neater finished edges and easier joining. Blocks can be joined by seaming with a darning needle or crochet.

TIPS
– When counting rows, it’s helpful to remember one ridge equals two rows
– Placing a removable stitch marker on the RS of your work will help you keep track of which row you’re on
– When joining a new color to a piece/block, make sure you are on the RS of your work
– When picking up stitches along an edge of a log cabin block, pick up one stitch per garter ridge
– Before seaming finished blocks, use removable stitch markers to hold blanket pieces together
– Use a smaller size needle if necessary to pick up stitches along edges
