The Culmination Blanket allows you to blend yarn scraps and to play with colour like you would with fabric in a scrap quilt. With its large gauge, the worsted weight piece knits up much faster than a traditional scrap blanket without becoming cumbersome since you work it one square at a time. You can use this pattern as a formula to make it work for your stash.

SIZE
One Size (adjustable)

FINISHED MEASUREMENTS
The sample measured 50″ / 127 cm x 60″ / 152.5 cm

YARN
As many mixed scraps as you can gather to meet size desired
Each of my blocks used approx. 68 g of yarn total
My whole blanket used 2050 g of yarn total in varying weights and yardage for the blocks
200 yds / 183 m of worsted weight yarn for joining blocks

Alternatively, you could use any weight for this blanket as long as you are consistently using the same total weight for each block and the same needle size. Blocks may result in a different size, but as long as blocks are consistent, you can make this pattern your own.

GAUGE
10.5 sts x 14.5 rows = 4″ / 10 cm in block pattern, blocked
Each block is 12″ x 12″ / 30.5 x 30.5 cm after blocking

NEEDLES
US 11 / 8 mm – straight or circular
