This is a very large and time-consuming project which requires a fair bit of concentration to make sure the charts are followed correctly; but the result is a gorgeous and sizeable baby blanket, twice as thick and warm as most other knitted blankets. It incorporates ‘step’ and ‘key’ motifs inspired by traditional designs from medieval Celtic illuminated manuscripts, and is completely reversible.

Requires double knitting techniques (explained in pattern), chart reading and grafting.

2009-09-13: New version of PDF uploaded; almost all changes are cosmetic, but one correction was made to the chart schematic - two of the sections said to use Chart H when one of them should actually have said to use chart I.
