Traveling Knit Afghan Square 21

Hey lovelies, want to hear about the ultimate traveling knit blanket?

This square is a part of a year-long project sponsored by Lion Brand Yarn called the Traveling Afghans. In conjunction with Lion Brand’s “My Life in Yarn” 2020 campaign, the Traveling Afghan is a collaborative effort among 49 knitwear designers and bloggers from seven different countries! Starting in January, the Traveling Afghan set sail from NYC and has journeyed to a new designer every two weeks. There are so many talented designers across the world whom have each created a 10”x10” square to add to the blanket, with that pattern published free online, before sending it off to the next person.

20 squares in, and I’ve held and squished this afghan and it’s absolutely cozy heaven.

Indulge in a vibrant Garter Rib Stitch to create this 10”x10” square for the ultimate warm, soft and versatile wool yarn blend knit blanket.
