COSY THROWS AND BLANKETS

100 unique blanket squares that can be combined to create a dozen stunning blankets or throws with expert advice on how to knit with several colours and how to personalise them using beads and other embellishments. Practise a range of knitting techniques from intarsia through to textured stitches, and create squares using clean, matt cottons and soft, hairy winter yarns. From a colourful circus-inspired Afghan to a sea design in aqua shades, from a sophisticated blanket in mineral tones to a bright fruity rug, a retro design combining Fair Isle tank-top stripe patterns and 70s graphics, there are super oversized textured big and cosy blankets for comfort and warmth with lots of cables, bobbles and seed stitch patterns. Other projects include denim hearts, fish, floor coverings, a playmat and images to lighten the mood like ducks and flowers and Christmas trees. 128 page big square softback, 25cm.
