The Windmill Blanket is a cozy project perfect for baby blankets or lapghans. Made from four separate squares knit in garter stitch, each square is shaped using short rows. The colorwork alternates between a main color (MC) and a contrast color (CC) in the second part of each square, with the option to vary the main color for each square. This pattern is a great way to learn the short row technique while creating a beautiful and functional blanket.
