Roots
The pattern was designed for the Mystery Knit-A-Long 2023, held in the Arella Seaton Design group on Ravelry.
Seedlings planted grow and flourish. The roots entwine together that it is inconceivable that they should ever part.
The Roots pattern uses ten square designs with growing, twisting, turning, and entwining motifs.
The blanket is worked in squares, in a mosaic garter stitch, and sewn together. The charts are also given in reversed colours for ease of use in case you decide to swap the light and dark colours in your blanket.
Yarn
Worsted / 10 ply
500 g / 17.64 oz = 997 m / 1090 yards,
MC (pattern + I-cord edge) 670 g / 23.7 oz = 1335 m / 1460 yards
CC (background) 550 g / 19.4 oz = 1100 m / 1200 yards
Size
Throw 5 x 6 squares (see layout on the right)
110 x 132 cm / 43.5 x 52” + I-cord edge
The mosaic pattern is charted and written out. The charts are also given in reversed colours for ease of use in case you decide to swap the light and dark colours in your blanket.
The sample was made in Worsted / 10 ply weight acrylic yarn. Different yarn weights and fibres can be used. Using different fibres affects the size of the blanket and the amount of yarn needed.
The yarn used for the sample:
KnitPicks Brava 500,
500 g / 17.64 oz = 997 m / 1090 yards,
MC #28330 Mint
CC #28331 Peacock
