Speed Tweed
Doubled yarn, a big hook, and a lofty linked stitch pattern combine to make this thick, comfy blanket. The perfect gift for a college student or sports fanatic … grab two team colors and go. Add oversized pompoms for the girls, and you’ll score extra points!
There is plenty of time to make up a few of these for back to school and football season. School colors, sorority colors … or stick to tans and grays if you need a “man-ghan” (my inital inspiration for this one)!
Worsted weight yarn is held double throughout, but the linked stitches with spaces between keep this blanket from being bulky. It is cushy, stretchy, and has a perfect weight for a lap blanket.
5 skeins of Taupe and 4 skeins of Linen were used to complete the blanket as pictured.
