MATERIALS

6 total skeins of Madeline Tosh DK, 100% machine washable merino wool. Each skein is 225 yards/ 115 grams; approximately 1,350 yards required. (NOTE: We no longer offer Madeline Tosh DK, but choose from one of our other light worsted/dk weight yarns.)

  • 4 skeins of the Main Color. I used Antler (right). Approximately 900 yards required.
  • 2 skeins of Contrast Colors. I used Candlewick for the corners and Butter for the stripes. Approximately 450 yards required. (One skein would be enough to make both the corners and the stripes. And two skeins is enough for two blankets.)

NOTE: Keep in mind that garter stitch tends to stretch vertically, so with use, the length will grow a bit.
