The Kerry Kyle
The Kerry Kyle
Kerry, the traditional name for this part of Cowal, comes from the Gaelic word for “quarterland” (ceathramh: referring to an old unit of land measurement). Inspired by the quarterland, this blanket features four fold symmetry, squares within squares, and is finished with a neat i-cord border.
Yarn
Kate Davies Designs Ooskit (100% British Wool; 240 yards / 220m per 100g skein)
Riach: 12x 100g skeins
Needles and notions
Gauge-size needle(s) of your preferred type for working small circumferences
Below gauge-size needle(s) (1 size below) of your preferred type for working small circumferences
Above gauge-size needle (3 or 4 sizes larger than gauge-size needle) for working three-needle and i-cord bind off
2 long gauge-size circular needles (150cm / 60in length) for joining blanket strips together
Stitch marker
Tapestry needle
Blocking Wires (optional)
Gauge
When blocked, each blanket square measures 23 x 23cm / 9 x 9in. To ascertain gauge, make and block one square, going up (or down) a needle size as necessary. Use 4mm needle as a starting point for swatching.
Size
Finished blanket: 145 x 122 cm / 57 x 48 in.
Pattern notes
Beginning with a pinhole cast on, each square is knitted in the round from centre to outer edges, following a chart. The squares are blocked, then joined into strips using a three- needle bind off and each strip is joined to the next, using
a three-needle bind off, to create the blanket. Stitches are then picked up along each side of the blanket and, with yarn doubled, the blanket edge is finished with an i-cord bind off.
