Cozy and opulent, the herringbone blanket knitting pattern has all the thoughtful charms of a hand-knit treasure but finishes in record time for a blanket!
It all starts using the herringbone knit stitch with a super squishy bulky yarn, that makes everything quick and easy.
Combining classic knitted herringbone stitches with a playful wink of fringes, you will have a beautiful balance of practical and playful!
The herringbone blanket knitting pattern is very simple, just a 2-row repeat of knitting and slipping stitches. The rows swiftly multiply, forming a thick, plush texture known as herringbone.
This herringbone blanket is knit from the bottom up, worked flat (back and forth).
SIZING
Lovey (Security / Cuddle, Stroller / Baby, Receiving) [Toddler, Swaddle, Crib] {Throw, Twin, Full / Double} Queen, King
GAUGE, NEEDLES, NOTIONS
Gauge: 10 stitches over 4”/10cm
Needles: 19/15 mm. I suggest knitting with circular needles so you have plenty of room for all of the stitches and the cord carries the weight of the blanket, which means your hands and wrists will not suffer from fatigue, like happens with straight needles.
Notions: Tapestry needle, Crochet hook, Scissors, Measuring tape, or ruler
