PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS THE INDIVIDUAL SQUARE PATTERN ONLY. THE COMPLETE PATTERN FOR ALL PARTS OF THE BLANKET IS AVAILABLE AS AN EBOOK HERE
Begin your winter knitting with a KAL project destined to become a family heirloom! This is the first square of Lynne Rowe’s vibrant, heart-themed blanket. Beginning with the November 2018 issue, each issue of Simply Knitting will include patterns for 2 afghan squares. Follow along to create your own special blanket. The suggested yarn comes in 36 colors, so you’re bound to find your favorite shades!
Each finished square measures approx. 7.25”, and the 36-square blanket measures approx. 47.25”.
