Bernadette Blanket

Bernadette Blanket, colourwork knitted blanket, is super bulky knitted blanket that incorporates colour changes using slip stitches. This project grows amazingly fast and the stitch pattern gets rather addictive. Grab yarn in four different colours and let’s make this beautiful blanket!  

The blanket size is most suitable for toddler or a small child, however it is easily customisable to smaller or larger size.

To create this beautiful colourwork knitted blanket you will need to master (or already know) these stitches and techniques:

Long tail cast on (CO), knit stitch (K), purl stitch (P), slip X stitches purlwise (slXp), bind-off (BO), blocking.

Notes:

  • Similar super bulky weight yarns may be substituted; please check gauge.
  • The blanket is worked flat from bottom up.
  • Yarn is held in back for slip stitches on RS rows and front on WS rows.
  • The blanket has a border of garter stitch (knit stitch on each row) on bottom and top edge.
