Blanket of Lotus Magick
is a floral talisman for awakening, serenity, and spiritual alignment. At its heart blooms a large lotus motif, rising from the center in layered petals. It is framed by diagonal ridge stitches and vertical mock cables that add graceful structure and gentle movement. This is an engaging, meditative project best suited for intermediate knitters who enjoy textured stitchwork.
