Building Forts is a knit / purl stitch motif that is completely reversible. For best results in stitch definition, choose a light-toned solid color yarn.

Building Forts is conveniently written in 5 sizes ranging from a lovie to an afghan. The Seed stitch edging flows seamlessly into the body of the blanket.

Instructions are written and charted for personal preference and all measurements are given in US and metric.
