The inspiration of this blanket was a painting of my 11-years old daughter.
The blanket has an oval shape:
length 67”(168 cm)
width 56”(140 cm).
It is seamless and completely reversible. The center of the blanket is made using the entrelac technique. The border is knitted using the short rows. When you work the border, you don’t have to hide the wraps in the garter stitch and you don’t have to cut the yarn when you change to the other color yarn.
Yarn: “Peace Fleece” (75% merino wool, 25% mohair); 200 yards/180 meters; 115 grams/ 4 ounces)
