Valley Yarns Dorado is a lovely textured blanket knit in easy-care Montague. The blanket showcases a stunning diamond grid stitch pattern and comes in two sizes. Perfect for curling under with a good book or a must-have baby gift. Dorado is knit flat with a seed stitch border surrounding the diamond grid stitch pattern. The blanket is super fun and easy as there are only knit and purl stitches. Montague from Valley Yarns is a gorgeously soft cotton yarn with a bouclé look that will create fabrics you’ll love. The Diamond Grip stitch is in written form only.
